Aged Care Providers:
Member overview and benefits

ACIA’s purpose is to:

support aged care providers in provision of high-quality services to older Australians
advocate for a regulatory, legislative and societal environment that supports a sustainable, high-quality aged care system

Support and assistance to aged care providers is at the core of our purpose and activities. Membership of ACIA is open to providers of care and support to older Australians – whether through residential aged care, home care or support, or housing for older people.

Members can call on our Chief Executive Officer for assistance, information or advice.

The ACIA Board is responsible for governance and strategic direction for the Association. Its members are senior executives of aged care organisations and are available to support members.

The Nursing Management Advisory Support Group (NMAS) is a permanent sub-committee of the ACIA Board.

The NMAS provides expert advice to ACIA’s Board, support and assistance to nursing and clinical managers, and auspices events to support nursing staff.
