Post-Acquisition Risks to Person-Centred Care
Thursday 1 October 2026
8 am to 9:30 am AEST
Why this matters now
The Care sector is consolidating fast, with over 30 acquisitions since 2023, but at a significant risk to quality, person-centred care.
Peer-reviewed research now confirms what practitioners have long suspected: acquired homes show measurably higher complaint rates and hospitalisations in the two years post-acquisition.
In our experience, the difference is rarely the acquisition itself. It's the integration.
Fire up™ Solutions is hosting a virtual, invitation-only executive roundtable of Aged Care executives to examine the real risks in post-acquisition transition: care model fragmentation, technology gaps, governance strain, and the invisible seam that families feel before regulators do.
Limited to 12 executives. Conversations under Chatham House Rules to share knowledge and lessons learned in a safe space.
