The Interface Between Australia's Aged Care System and the National Disability Insurance Scheme
The interface between Australia's aged care and disability systems has come into sharper focus with the 2023 Review of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) recommendation to retain the upper age limit for entry and the introduction of an age criterion for assessment in the Aged Care Act 2024. Both are set at age 65. This precise administrative boundary contrasts with the considerable movement across the two systems in practice and prom…
Integrating the retirement income system and aged care funding in Australia
Retirement incomes and aged care have both received considerable policy attention in Australia over the last three decades, but as in other countries, the two financing systems have remained largely separate in policy and practice. The problem is located at the intersection of wider policy debates about shifts from public to private welfare and concerns over intergenerational equity. This paper aims to integrate these related debates by incorpora…
What's in a name? Similarities and differences in international terms and meanings for older peoples' housing with services
The diversity of terms and meanings relating to housing with services for older people confounds systematic analysis, especially in international comparative research. This paper presents an analysis of over 90 terms identified in literature from the United Kingdom, the United States of America, Canada, Australia and New Zealand reporting types of housing with services under the umbrella of ‘service integrated housing’ (SIH), defined as all forms…
Opening the word hoard
Extending the Pillars of Social Policy Financing to Aged Care
Against the background of a recent resounding rejection of substantial increases in user contributions for funding long‐term residential care in Australia, and especially of measures that could require realization of housing assets, this paper examines the scope for extending to long‐term care the “pillars” approach to financing of retirement incomes and health care. The two latter areas are funded through pillars of general revenue, private insu…
Imagining evidence, fictioning truth - revisiting (courtesy of O. J. Simpson) expert evidence in the Chamberlain case
Connoisseurs of bizarre criminal cases must have been revelling. Could there really have been any doubt that the two 'trials of the century' would hit the press in the same week, despite a time lapse of thirteen years? On 1 October 1995 the Australian press reported that a third 'limited scale' coronial inquiry into the death of Azaria Chamberlain was about to be opened in the Northern Territory in order to 'clear the public record'. This was to …

How Many Old People Use Community Services? A Review of Survey Findings
Several surveys of the aged have been conducted in Australia in recent years. They give rise to questions about the usefulness of their findings, particularly in determining the extent to which the aged use community services and in planning future services. This paper reviews the methods and findings of five of these surveys carried out between 1981 and 1986. It looks at the way questions were constructed, the time reference used, the population…
The influence of personal history of abuse and gender on clinicians' judgments of child abuse
Themes in Soviet Social Gerontology
This paper presents a review of current research in Soviet gerontology. It begins by establishing the origins of current research themes in the early investigations of pre- and early post-Revolution gerontologists. Five main areas of current research interest are then outlined: theoretical demography, longevity, physiology of labour, socio-hygiene and international collaborative studies. Some similarities and differences in approaches and emphase…
Analysing access to nursing home care
The nineteenth Institute of Australian Geographers Conference, Sydney, 1984
Systems of aged care in Melbourne
Family Support of the Aged
This paper brings together a range of Australian material concerning family support for the aged. From a review of studies dealing with the family structure of the aged and accounts of inter generational contact and supportive exchanges within families, including migrant families, considerable evidence of family support is found. The implications of the absence of such support are seen from data on the use of services and admissions to institutio…
