The Residential Managers’ Bulletin – Quarter 4 of FY24

Understanding how the latest reforms will impact your services

In this issue of the bulletin, we provide some recommendations pertaining to the scheduled increase in the average care minutes per resident per day starting from 1 October. Key to this increase is also the much-anticipated recognition of a part of Enrolled Nurse time to be counted towards the RN-specific care minutes.

This bulletin emphasises the strategic use of care minutes to optimise RN time, ensuring that the allocation aligns with resident needs.
