Virtual nursing into Residential Aged Care

Virtual nursing into Residential Aged Care

Running from March 2025 through to June 2027, Amplar Home Health will deliver virtual nursing services in to Residential Aged Care across 30 homes nationwide, with a focus on rural and remote areas.

We are proud to partner with the Australian government to deliver this new framework for virtual nursing services in residential aged care, exploring how virtual nursing services can be integrated to provide critical support to on-site staff in aged care homes and ensure residents can access personalised clinical care. Our goal is to ensure older people, especially First Nations or those with culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, receive consistent and timely care when and where they need it.
