The aged care compliance burden

Australian aged care providers operate under intense regulatory scrutiny. The strengthened standards raise the bar every year.

Worker credentials in spreadsheets

AHPRA registrations, NDIS Worker Screening checks, and training records tracked manually across files and folders create gaps and compliance risk.

SIRS reporting pressure

The Serious Incident Response Scheme requires strict timeframes. Missing a deadline or misclassifying an incident is a compliance breach.

ACQSC audit readiness

Unannounced audits mean you need current evidence across all eight Aged Care Quality Standards at all times — not just when the notice arrives.

No visibility across facilities

Multi-facility providers struggle to see compliance status, worker credentials, and incident status across every site from one view.

Built for Australian aged care regulation

NovoCove maps directly to the frameworks that govern your sector.

  • Aged Care Quality Standards — all eight standards (including strengthened 2025)
  • Serious Incident Response Scheme (SIRS)
  • AHPRA registration for nurses and allied health
  • NDIS Practice Standards and Worker Screening
  • Quality indicators and care minutes reporting
  • Open disclosure and consumer feedback obligations

NovoCove helps you organise compliance work. It does not provide official regulatory approval and does not guarantee compliance.
