Lifetime care for adults with acquired disabilities is of growing public concern. Substantial levels of unmet need, poorly coordinated services and inadequacy of care arrangements to guarantee lifetime care are pressing concerns. Coordinating multi-sector and service inputs is an ongoing problem for policy makers and providers in Australia. The proposed project will develop an empirical understanding of how current systems of financing and management of lifetime care operate at policy and service delivery levels for adults with acquired disabilities. This provides a strategic foundation for policy development and enhanced lifetime care arrangements that will be of relevance to other populations.

后天残疾成年人的终身护理日益受到公众的关注。大量需求未得到满足，服务协调不良，护理安排不足以保证终身护理，这些都是紧迫的问题。协调多部门和服务投入是澳大利亚决策者和提供者面临的一个长期问题。拟议的项目将从经验上了解目前终身护理的筹资和管理制度如何在政策和服务提供层面上为后天残疾的成年人运作。这为制定政策和加强与其他人口相关的终身护理安排提供了战略基础。
