Aged care infection data

[Anonymous]

Hi Sarah

The annual Aged Care National Antimicrobial Prescribing Survey reports publish both infection and antimicrobial use data. These reports can be found on the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Healthcare website.

Cheers, Noleen

Good Afternoon IP colleagues,
Is there anywhere I can find published infection data for aged care facilities?
I am working on setting benchmarks and wanted to see if there are already some established.
Thanks
