The Minister for Aged Care and Senior Australians launched the Aged and Community Care Innovation and Technology Capabilities and Readiness (CARE-IT) Report on 26 November 2020. This important publication adds significantly to the collective understanding of the sector, its current level of digital maturity and the significant opportunities technology and innovation can offer in providing a more sustainable and high quality aged and community care sector.

Given the speed of the technological change, ACIITC commissioned an updated review, Aged and Community Sector Technology and Innovative Practice – A Report on what the Research and Evidence is indicating. The report is based on a search of major research databases and of the grey literature, focusing on the period 2016 – 2019, updating the first review that identified research studies published 2011 – 2016.

The Technology Roadmap for Aged Care in Australia released in 2017 by the Aged Care Industry Technology Council (ACIITC) recognises the need for technology to underpin the delivery of aged care services and ensure independence, choice and control for consumers.
