Text of Note
This report estimates the cost of dementia care in New South Wales public hospitals using a subset of data from the Hospital Dementia Services (HDS) Project conducted by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare in conjunction with the University of New South Wales and the University of Canberra. New South Wales provides both system and population diversity to be broadly representative of the Australian hospital experience of people with dementia. The report also presents innovative strategies and practices being implemented in Australia and internationally, which might improve the quality and cost efficiency of dementia care in hospitals.
