Patterns of health service use by people with dementia in their last year of life: New South Wales and Victoria

This report examined the health services usage of people with dementia in their last year of life and the findings have important implications for Australia’s health and aged care systems. The report shows people with dementia who died aged 65 or over generally used health services less in their last year of life than people without dementia. People with younger-onset dementia used health services more than older people with dementia.
