Summary
Confidentialised unit record file (CURF) with selected information about the care needs of people in residential care – based on their last valid Aged Care Funding Instrument (ACFI) assessment – as at 30 June. This CURF accompanies the People's care needs in aged care topic.
Data are provided in a zipped file and include the following variables:
- Date: year
- Geography: state/territory
- Assessment: activities of daily living (ADL) score, behaviour and cognition (BEH) score, complex health care (CHC) score
- Recipient: age group, sex, preferred language
There are fewer records in the 2007-08 CURF because the ACFI was first introduced in March 2008.
The dementia flag was removed from all CURFs in October 2020 for de-identification purposes.
