New facilities should implement qualification matrices where CHC43015 holders supervise Certificate III qualified staff. The qualification includes core unit CHCLEG003 'Manage legal and ethical compliance' specifically addressing aged care regulatory frameworks.

Post-qualification: starting salary $60,000-$65,000 with penalty rates adding $8,000-$12,000 for shift work. Career changers should plan for 3-6 months reduced income during intensive placement periods.
