Towards Community Aged Care Reform: Design and evaluation of a seamless, flexible service model

该项目将开发和测试一个无缝和灵活的社区养老模式，更好地响应消费者的需求。通过在社区老年护理业务中联合护理社区选项来推出该项目，预计该项目将提高消费者满意度、服务质量和健康结果。该项目还将探讨集合筹资的潜力，重点放在其解决因目前筹资安排的复杂性而造成的重大服务差距方面的潜力。此外，该项目将产生新的科学证据，证明澳大利亚以消费者为导向的社区老年护理的可行性，并建立一个正在进行的研究计划。

The project will develop and test a seamless and flexible community aged care model that is more responsive to consumer needs. To be rolled out by Uniting Care Community Options in its community aged care operations, it is expected that the project will raise consumer satisfaction, service quality, and health outcomes. The project will also explore the potential of pooled funding focusing on its potential to resolve major service gaps that result from the complexity of current funding arrangements. Moreover, the project will generate new scientific evidence regarding the viability of consumer-directed community aged care in Australia and establish an ongoing research program.
