Abstract
LAY SUMMARY Military service has an impact on health and well-being across the life course. However, there is little research on older Veterans and dependants who use home care to enable them to remain living in the community. The authors analyzed data from a Melbourne, Australia, home care organization’s electronic care records to explore the differences between clients supported by the Department of Veterans’ Affairs and clients in the general home nursing population. Results showed the greater needs of and complexity of care utilized by Veterans and dependants. Funding structures and support services need to account for these needs in older age.
