The short answer

How can technology reduce administrative burden in aged care?

Liverpool, NSW South Yarra, VIC

Technology reduces aged care administration by collecting data automatically, turning it into live reports and handing repetitive tasks to secure AI agents. Sharktech connects rostering, payroll, care and incident systems into Business Intelligence, automates the collation work behind compliance reporting, and deploys agents that draft summaries and handle enquiries for staff to review.

The new Aged Care Act commenced on 1 November 2025, with strengthened Quality Standards and new statutory duties for providers. Every new obligation lands on the same clinical and administrative teams already stretched by care minutes, rostering and reporting. The answer is not more spreadsheets. It is connected systems and automation that do the collation for you, with your people making the decisions. Sharktech Global is an Australian AI tech lab, the Sharktech AI Tech Lab, with offices in Liverpool, New South Wales and South Yarra, Victoria. We design, build and run our own AI platforms and support aged care across Liverpool, Parramatta, Campbelltown, Penrith and across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Newcastle, Wollongong and Geelong.

Why it matters now

Why is secure automation a priority for aged care?

Administrative load, regulation and cyber risk are rising together across Australian health and care.

19%

Of all notifiable data breaches in 2025 came from health service providers, the largest share of any sector.

716

Of 1,205 breach notifications in 2025 were caused by malicious or criminal attacks.

10 Dec 2026

From this date, privacy policies must explain significant automated decisions that use personal information.

1 Nov 2025

The new Aged Care Act commenced, bringing strengthened Quality Standards and statutory duties for providers.

Problem and solution

How does Sharktech reduce administrative burden for aged care?

Real problems. Delivered through Sharktech. Numbers you can check.

The problem

Care minutes and staffing reports built by hand

Rostering, payroll and agency data sit in separate systems, so tracking care minutes against targets means exports and spreadsheets every week.

Delivered through Sharktech
Business Intelligence and data

We connect rostering, payroll and agency data into Business Intelligence dashboards for care minutes against targets, registered nurse coverage, agency spend and overtime by facility, refreshed automatically.

What you measure

Hours of reporting removed per week, care minutes visible daily

The problem

Quality indicator and incident data scattered across systems

Quality indicator data, incident reports and complaints are collected in different places and pulled together manually before every submission or audit.

Delivered through Sharktech
Workflow automation

We automate the collection of quality indicator and incident data into one register, with Business Intelligence trends by facility and a clear evidence trail for your governing body and assessors.

What you measure

Time to prepare quarterly submissions, open incidents by age

The problem

Nurses and carers buried in documentation

Handover notes, care plan reviews and family updates take time away from residents on every shift.

Delivered through Sharktech
Secure AI agents

AI agents deployed inside your environment draft handover summaries, care plan review notes and family update emails from existing records, for a registered nurse or manager to check and approve.

What you measure

Documentation minutes per shift, drafts approved without rework

The problem

Enquiries, tours and admissions paperwork

Families call at all hours with questions, and admissions teams chase forms, documents and follow ups by hand.

Delivered through Sharktech
Secure AI agents

An enquiry agent answers common questions, books tours and collects admission documents, passing every qualified enquiry and anything sensitive to your admissions team.

What you measure

Enquiry response time, tours booked, admission forms complete on day one

The problem

Resident health information is a target

Health service providers reported more data breaches than any other sector in Australia in 2025, and aged care holds exactly the data attackers want.

Delivered through Sharktech
Cybersecurity

We assess you against the Essential Eight, secure Microsoft 365 and email, test that backups restore, and train staff to spot phishing and invoice fraud.

What you measure

Essential Eight maturity, phishing click rate, tested recovery time

The problem

IT that cannot keep up across facilities

Care staff move between wings and sites with shared devices and accounts that are slow to set up for new and agency staff.

Delivered through Sharktech
Managed IT

Standard builds for mobile care devices, fast onboarding and offboarding for permanent and agency staff, and one Australian help desk for every facility.

What you measure

Time to onboard a new starter, devices under management, tickets resolved

Secure AI agents

How do secure AI agents on your network reduce admin in aged care?

The agent does the paperwork. Your people make the decisions.

An AI agent is software that completes a whole administrative job, such as collecting forms, drafting a report or answering an enquiry, rather than just answering a question. Sharktech designs, deploys and runs agents inside your own environment, connected to the systems you already use, with a person approving what matters.

  1. 01

    Handover summary agent

    Drafts shift handover summaries from progress notes for nurse review.

  2. 02

    Enquiry and tour agent

    Answers family enquiries, books tours and collects documents.

  3. 03

    Incident collation agent

    Gathers incident details into one register and flags overdue follow ups.

  4. 04

    Reporting agent

    Prepares the data pack behind quarterly and board reporting.

Built for trust

How Sharktech deploys agents securely

Deployed inside your environment

Agents run in your Microsoft 365 or cloud tenancy, or on your own network, using Australian data centre regions where the platform offers them.

Least-privilege access

Each agent uses a named service account that can only read and write the systems and records its job needs.

A person approves the output

Agents draft, check, collate and route. Clinical, care and financial decisions stay with your people.

Every action logged

A complete audit trail of what each agent read, drafted and sent, available for review at any time.

Your data stays yours

We configure business AI services so your data is not used to train public models, with data use controls documented.

Privacy by design

A privacy impact assessment before go-live, and support to explain automated decisions in your privacy policy ahead of the 10 December 2026 Privacy Act requirement.

For back-of-house areas such as kitchens, laundries and loading docks, Flagman AI safety adds fire and smoke detection and restricted zone alerts. Visit Flagman.ai.

FAQ FAQ

IT, data and AI for aged care: frequently asked questions

Can AI agents be used safely in aged care?

Yes, when they are deployed inside your own environment with limited access, full audit logs and a person approving the output. Sharktech agents draft, collate and route information. Clinical and care decisions stay with your registered nurses and managers.

Will AI agents work with our care management system?

Agents connect to your care, rostering and document systems where those systems allow secure integration through an API or export. We confirm what is possible with each vendor during the assessment and design around any limits.

Where is our residents' data stored?

Agents and dashboards run inside your Microsoft 365 or cloud environment, using Australian data centre regions where the platform offers them. We configure business AI services so your data is not used to train public models.

How much does it cost to start?

Most providers start with one small project: a Business Intelligence data audit and first dashboard from A$5,000, or an AI agent pilot from A$5,000. Managed IT starts from A$2,500 per month for a pilot month. Every price is confirmed in writing after an assessment.

Can Business Intelligence track care minutes and agency use?

Yes, we connect rostering, payroll and agency data into Business Intelligence to show care minutes against targets, registered nurse coverage, agency spend and overtime by facility, refreshed automatically.
