Improving carer’s quality of life and quality of care

该项目将提高澳大利亚照料者协会和社会服务部的能力，以评估和加强它们为支持澳大利亚270万无报酬照料者而提供的服务的成功。目前很少有人知道哪些支持和服务最有助于提高照顾者的生活质量，以及他们提供的护理质量，尽管有强有力的证据表明照顾者之间的生活质量危机。通过收集横截面和纵向数据，以建立在现有的数据集，该项目将使循证设计和提供服务，支持照顾者的社会，情感和经济，同时使他们能够提供高质量的护理。

This project will improve the ability of Carers Australia and the Department of Social Services to evaluate and enhance the success of services they implement to support Australia’s 2.7 million unpaid carers. Currently little is known about which support and services most help improve quality of life for carers, and the quality of care they provide, despite strong evidence of a quality of life crisis amongst carers. By collecting cross sectional and longitudinal data to build on an existing data set, this project will enable evidence-based design and delivery of services that support carers socially, emotionally and financially while enabling them to provide high quality care.
