Centre for Research in Aged Care - 2021 Annual Report

This report provides an overview of research activity within the Centre, capturing highlights and achievements throughout 2021.

End-of-Life and Palliative Care for People with Dementia Framework

Moving Pictures

In Australia, limited awareness of dementia in people from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds often results in delayed diagnosis, poorer prognosis, and a higher burden of care on families and health systems.  Moving Pictures, an innovative multimedia project, aims to change this through the production of short films co-produced with people from CALD backgrounds.

Australian Institute of Health and Welfare Report

This report contains detailed projections for the 50 most common countries of birth, 34 languages and 30 religions for older immigrants in Australia.  The report will be particularly useful to aged care service planners, providers of aged care services, and researchers in the field.

Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Dementia Research Action Plan

Australia's first CALD Dementia Research Action Plan was developed by the National Ageing Research Institute, in partnership with the National Health and Medical Research Council.

Voluntary Assisted Dying in Western Australia

The Voluntary Assisted Dying Act 2019 has implications for all health practitioners, healthcare workers, and additional specific obligations on all medical practitioners in relation to voluntary assisted dying.  The Department of Health has released information sheets to assist in understanding the requirements of the Act.

Research Australia

The Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety provided the Government with 148 recommendations earlier this year.  Research Australia will continue to provide analysis and comment on the policy and funding announced for the Aged Care sector, and how if affects or enhances research as a result.
