Health Metrics and Humanise Project: Developing Tools for Aged Care

The space of aged care received a considerable amount of positive and negative attention from the Australian press in the past few years. In this project we are working in collaboration with a software company who provides technological solutions for aged care clients. We are developing tools and techniques using data science and machine learning to improve the quality of life (QALY) for aged care residents.  We aim to develop risk predictors for residents as well as provide recommendations on how to reduce such risks. We work closely with aged care data, UI and general IT experts to achieve these goals.
