National evaluation of the Aged Care Innovative Pool Disability Aged Care Interface Pilot: final reportAged care series no. 12Nine projects were established under the Aged Care Innovative Pool Disability Aged Care Interface Pilot to trial new approaches to community-based aged care for people with disabilities who experience an increased need for support due to ageing. The projects have targeted eligible people living in supported accommodation facilities funded under the Commonwealth State/Territory Disability Agreement. Throughout 2004 and 2005, the AIHW evaluated the projects in New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia and Tasmania. The evaluation gathered information about the ageing-related needs of Pilot clients, the service activity profiles of projects, and evidence on individual outcomes and care experiences. This information is made available to inform policy discussions concerning the interface between national disability support and aged care programs. Authored by Hales C, Ross L & Ryan C.
