Primarily used in Australian English, aged care refers to the professional support services and facilities provided to elderly people who need help with daily living — think nursing homes, in-home support, and assisted living arrangements. It's the standard Aussie term for what Americans call eldercare. As the population ages, aged care has become a hot-button political and social topic in Australia, with major government funding debates and high-profile royal commissions into industry standards. If you're chatting with an Australian about caring for an older relative, aged care is the phrase you'll hear.
(chiefly, Australia) Eldercare.
