From April 2023, the federal Department of Health and Aged Care has nationally rolled out both the tools in Australia as a mandatory quality indicator to assess, monitor and benchmark quality of life and quality of care experience of aged care recipients.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In current work funded by a 2022 Flinders Foundation Health Seed Grant, Dr Khadka is studying the burden of hearing, vision and dental conditions among culturally and linguistically diverse populations who use aged care services in Australia.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cThe findings from this study will inform a bigger project that aims to develop an innovative care model for prevention of hearing, vision and dental conditions in these populations,\u201d he says.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">All of these outcomes are consistent with recommendations of the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, to provide improved health care for all older Australians, and especially those in residential aged care.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cThe assessment of a person\u2019s frailty at this important time in their aged care journey can be used to flag those who needs interventions, to lower their risk of adverse and very costly events like hospitalisation,\u201d he says.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cMore effort needs to be put in to avoid these conditions as much as possible, to intervene before they become a major health care and cost problem.\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The cost of health care for older Australians is rapidly rising, but Flinders University senior research fellow Dr Jyoti Khadka \u2013 who also works with the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2623,"featured_media":956,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3206],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-955","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-quality-aged-care"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 -
