The Aged Care Quality & Safety Commission, as part of the Governing for Reform in Aged Care Program, invite you to attend the Exploring the role of governing bodies and executives in leading digital adoption webinar to be held on Wednesday 1 March 2023, 12pm (AEDT). This online and free session is available for program participants only.

The world we operate in is becoming increasingly digitised.  Every new medical device, monitor and communication device is digitally enabled and often mobile. Increasingly, equipment such as wheelchairs and beds are actively broadcasting data, all the while operating alongside an unmanaged ecosystem of smart devices being used by patients, visitors, family members, staff and other third parties. As is the case in many other sectors, the aged care sector is moving towards an inevitable digital ‘boom’.

The use of technology in the aged care sector has the potential to change the way providers deliver services and improve consumer outcomes. Organisations that view technology as an enabler of improvement and change are better positioned to be able to respond to change, identify opportunities for improvement and continue to deliver high quality care.

This webinar will discuss the adoption of digital technology and innovation in aged care, and why it is crucial for executive leaders and governing body members to lead the integration of digital technology in their service offerings.

Hear from aged care sector leaders and subject matter experts about:

• How technology can be utilised to enable providers to deliver sustainable and high-quality services, which result in high quality consumer and employee experiences
• The role executive leaders and governing body members in creating an environment that supports the integration of innovative technology in order to achieve excellence in service delivery
• How to engage all governing body members and executives in the uptake of new digital technology to provide leadership in implementation across the organisation
• How to navigate through the complex environment of technology

The Governing for Reform in Aged Care Program webinars are run once a month and are the most popular of the learning activities offered as part of the Program.
