His feature in Ageing Australia\u2019s Autumn 2026 issue (Page 18) reflects on the evolution of the sector\u2014from early periods of intense regulatory scrutiny to the transformative impact of the Royal Commission\u2014and highlights the importance of practical, solutions\u2011focused legal guidance. Victor emphasises that meaningful legal work is not abstract; it directly influences how providers deliver safe, high\u2011quality care to older Australians and their families.<\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead, Victor identifies the \u201cscale and pace\u201d of reform, workforce pressures and funding constraints as defining challenges for providers. He argues that the most valuable contribution external partners can make is clarity: advice grounded in lived sector experience, free of unnecessary complexity, and shaped through genuine collaboration. As providers move from preparing for reforms to implementing them, Victor underscores the need for shared learning, trust and long\u2011term commitment. His perspective reinforces the critical role of partnership\u2014between providers, policymakers and advisers\u2014in strengthening aged care and ensuring reforms translate into real\u2011world improvements.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; line-height: 15.75pt;\">Click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.russellkennedy.com.au\/ArticleDocuments\/263\/Ageing-Australia-Aged-Care-Today-magazine-autumn-2026.pdf.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">here <\/a>to read the full spread.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; line-height: 15.75pt;\">To read more about Russell Kennedy\u2019s expertise in Aged Care, click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.russellkennedy.com.au\/our-expertise\/sectors\/aged-care-retirement-living\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Victor Harcourt, Principal in Russell Kennedy&#8221;s Aged Care and Retirement Living team has been featured in an article&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":563257,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[64,63,277498,44,277496,277497],"class_list":{"0":"post-563256","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-australia","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-for-his-recent-feature-in-ageing-australias-autumn-2026-issue","11":"tag-news","12":"tag-russell-kennedy-is-pleased-to-acknowledge-victor-harcourt","13":"tag-senior-principal"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/563256","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=563256"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/563256\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/563257"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=563256"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=563256"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=563256"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
