AI Governance & Automated Decision Support
As aged-care providers adopt analytics and AI, the governing question becomes what data an automated service is permitted to receive, in what form, and on whose authority.
Data the service needs
Movement patterns, mobility status, incident history, medication classes
Permitted form
Pseudonymised
Suppressed before release
- Name
- Photograph
- Address
- Family details
- Billing
Illustrative CareBand policy model — not a representation of current Regis behaviour.
Why the decision belongs outside the model
- An AI service cannot be relied upon to forget data it should never have received.
- Placing the decision before the model makes it reviewable and recordable.
- The same policy layer can govern human and machine requesters consistently.
- Suppression and pseudonymisation decisions become part of the governance record.
The governance question is not whether an AI service is trustworthy. It is whether an explicit, auditable policy determined what that service was permitted to see.
