In March 2023, we commissioned a review of In Home Care. The final report was released in November 2023.
The review’s aims were to examine:
- access
- affordability
- quality
- future program arrangements.
The review found IHC partially met its objective.
However, the report stated the program was hampered by workforce shortages, affordability, and access issues. It recommended the program is tailored to serve the three cohorts it seeks to serve.
The report details findings relating to families:
- with complex needs
- in geographically isolated areas
- working non-standard hours.
The report will inform the:
- Australian Competition and Consumer Commission inquiry into ECEC prices
- Productivity Commission inquiry into the ECEC sector.
