The aged care industry faces a myriad of challenges amidst its digital transformation journey. While strengths such as cybersecurity, communications, and leadership are evident, there's a notable lack of innovation, limited usage of predictive analytics, and minimal access to clients with digital systems. Dr. George Margelis, Chair at the Aged Care Industry Information Technology Council (ACIITC) will discuss the crucial role of technology uptake and innovation in delivering high-quality care. Equally essential is nurturing a digitally mature workforce to achieve this vision. Mounting evidence underscores the correlation between digital maturity and enhanced care quality. However, amidst these advancements, the sector grapples with a digital divide, encompassing disparities in cybersecurity, client management systems, and technology adoption.These challenges highlight the urgent need for concerted efforts to bridge these divides and ensure equitable access to digital resources, fostering comprehensive digital transformation across the aged care landscape.
