Overview

Join a national community of CHSP providers committed to meaningful change.

The new Aged Care Act enshrines the right for older people to receive aged care services that are culturally safe, culturally appropriate, trauma-aware and healing-informed; and for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people a right to opportunities and assistance to stay connected to their community, Country and Island Home.

Beyond box ticking and optics, this is about the slow and at times challenging work of bringing about meaningful cultural change within CHSP organisations and strengthening relationships for improved care for older Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, families and communities.

What’s covered

This National Community of Practice is for CHSP providers and welcomes people across all organisational levels and stages on this ongoing journey building cultural safety. This is the third and final session in a series of three 1.5-hour online sessions, we have delivered.

This Community of Practice aims to provide a supportive space to share insights, ask questions, and build lasting change within the aged care sector. There will be guest presenters, facilitated discussion as a large group and breakout sessions for sharing in smaller groups.

 This is an opportunity to:

• Gain insights from other providers—their successes and challenges
• Reflect on practice, progress and next steps for your service
• Identify actionable improvements that meet regulations and drive lasting change
• Support aged care dialogue that champions cultural connection, safety, and healing beyond compliance
• Be inspired and encouraged by a national community of leaders and practitioners who are prioritising cultural safety for older Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people
