Harnessing Information and Communications Technology to create sustainable aged care services.
The ITAC Organising Committee decided that ITAC should consist of a range of events throughout the year. These International Forum sessions will focus on a particular topic and will be held every 4-6 weeks. The sessions will run for two (2) hours and include access to virtual exhibitors and sponsors. The intention is to use each Forum to explore a specific subject with a strong focus on innovation, technology and improved quality care outcomes.
The ACIITC has established three (3) National Roundtables to engage specific sectors of the industry and to promote collaboration and activities focused on the uptake of technology and innovation in the industry.
The current National Roundtable focus areas include:
The Aged Care Industry IT Council (ACIITC) was formed by the two industry Peak bodies Leading Age Services Australia (LASA) and Aged and Community Services Australia (ACSA) in 2007 with the express intent of providing the industry with a vehicle to consider and debate IT related opportunities and to disseminate the lessons learned from that process to the wider aged care industry.
