2010 Intergenerational Report

This week the Hon. Wayne Swan released the Future Challenges for Australia Report. As most of us will recognise, there were major implications for Aged Care and in a broader sense, the Health of the Nation.

Funding for Aged Care in that time will grow from 0.6%GDP to 1.8% GDP and for every 5 working Australians, there will be at least 2 supported in aged care.

Join the discussion

Ultimately they're only forecasts and models for the future up to 2050, but when you look closer at the next 5 years - what opportunities are presented for your organisation?

Are you at bed capacity? Will you need to upgrade your management infrastructure? If you have read/breezed through the report, what does it mean to you? 

If you have any thoughts, leave them here in comments, via the IT:informer Twitterstream, or on the Smart Aged Care Technology Group.
