Summary
Quality indicators measure important aspects of quality of care that affect the health and wellbeing of people living in residential aged care. Since 1 July 2019, participation in the National Mandatory Quality Indicator Program (QI Program) has been mandatory for all Australian Government-subsidised residential aged care services. Since 1 April 2023, the QI Program has included eleven indicators: pressure injuries; use of physical restraint; unplanned weight loss; falls and major injury; medication management, activities of daily living, incontinence care, hospitalisations, workforce, consumer experience, and quality of life.
This report presents quality indicators that have been recompiled for more complete data than were available at the cut-off dates for quarterly reporting in Q4 2022–23 and Q1-4 2023–24.
