Frameworks

Supported Frameworks & Reporting Modules

Willow is built to support regulated organisations across aged care, disability, and healthcare.

We don’t just store documents — we structure compliance, automate evidence flows, and turn regulatory obligations into living systems.

Our platform supports both:

Formal regulatory frameworks (standards, accreditation, participation requirements)

Mandatory reporting programs (quality indicators, incident schemes, financial reporting, assurance obligations)

What are the Strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards (ACQS) 2025?

The ACQS 2025 are Australia's reformed aged care quality standards, replacing the previous 2019 standards. They introduce seven strengthened standards with a stronger focus on outcomes, clinical governance, food and nutrition, and the lived experience of older people. All residential aged care providers must demonstrate compliance with these standards, and the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission will assess against them.

How many quality standards are in ACQS 2025?

There are seven strengthened quality standards covering: (1) The Person, (2) The Organisation, (3) The Care and Services, (4) The Environment, (5) Clinical Care, (6) Food and Nutrition, and (7) The Workforce. Each standard contains multiple requirements that providers must meet.

What is SIRS reporting in aged care?

The Serious Incident Response Scheme (SIRS) requires aged care providers to identify, record, manage, resolve, and report serious incidents. Reportable incidents include abuse, neglect, unexplained absence, unexpected death, use of restrictive practices, and more. Priority 1 incidents must be reported within 24 hours. Willow helps you track incidents and manage your SIRS reporting obligations in one place

What are quality indicators in aged care?

Quality indicators are standardised measures that aged care providers must collect and report to the Department of Health as part of the National Quality Indicator Program (NQIP). They cover areas like pressure injuries, physical restraint, unplanned weight loss, falls, and medication management. Willow helps you track these metrics across sites and prepare your quarterly submissions.

What is care minutes compliance?

Care minutes require residential aged care providers to deliver a minimum amount of direct care time per resident per day, including a mandated amount from registered nurses. Providers must also have a registered nurse on site 24/7. Willow helps you monitor care minute delivery against targets and flag shortfalls before they become compliance issues.

How does Willow map evidence across multiple frameworks?

A single piece of evidence — such as a policy, training record, or incident report — can satisfy requirements across multiple frameworks simultaneously. Willow's AI engine identifies these overlaps automatically, so you don't need to upload or tag the same document multiple times. If you're meeting both ACQS and NDIS obligations, Willow shows you where one piece of evidence covers both.

Does Willow support NDIS Practice Standards?

Yes. Willow fully supports the NDIS Practice Standards and can map your evidence against NDIS requirements alongside aged care standards. This is especially valuable for providers operating across both sectors — you manage compliance in one place instead of maintaining separate systems.

Can Willow help with CQC compliance (UK)?

CQC framework support is on our roadmap. Willow's architecture is designed to support multiple international frameworks, and CQC's Fundamental Standards are planned for our UK expansion. If you're a UK-based provider interested in early access, get in touch with our team.
