Registry of Older South Australians (ROSA): framework and plan.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Australia's ageing population puts significant demands on the aged care and healthcare sectors. To monitor the provision of aged care and healthcare services to older people, each government body has an individual data collection system. Together these systems can be the basis for creating the evidence necessary to support future allocation of resources for our ageing community. The Registry of Older South Australians (ROSA) is a cross-sector multidisciplinary (ie, aged care and healthcare) platform built to address the challenges of monitoring people in aged care settings. This protocol describes the ROSA's framework and plans.

Methods and analysis

A registry to capture 16 000 South Australians/year undergoing an aged care eligibility assessment was designed. R
