Grant Activity:
Mobile X-ray services provided within residential aged care facilities
Purpose:
An avoidable trip to the hospital can be a distressing experience for aged care residents and their families. For many, the trip is for a diagnostic x-ray following a fall or when abdominal or chest discomfort is experienced. From the 1st of May 2019, Medicare funding to support mobile x-ray services to residential aged care facilities for selected circumstances will exist. This research will assess the benefits of this change as well as inform modifications to ensure future sustainability.
