As Care Connect marks 30 years of supporting older Australians to live independently, the home care provider is doubling down on a future-focused strategy that places workforce development, client empowerment, and multidisciplinary care at the heart of its growth.

With the Support at Home program just over four months away, providers across the aged care sector are accelerating their transformation strategies. For Care Connect, that transformation is grounded in workforce expansion, technological renewal – and most critically, a shift toward multidisciplinary care teams.

“We’ve grown our workforce to nearly 400,” said CEO Lynda Chalmers, up from 279 just a year ago. “That’s been a really deliberate strategy.”
