Our dataset

Every person living in aged residential care, and every person who receives publicly-funded home support services in New Zealand, is assessed using interRAI.

All the completed interRAI assessments are stored on a single national data platform, and feed into a single data warehouse.

The anonymised, aggregated data forms a unique and powerful resource for research and policy. It informs health decisions across Te Whatu Ora and is in demand nationally and internationally in academic settings. Our own Research Network fosters the use of interRAI data for research.

Our data visualisation

The visualisation puts a broad range of interRAI data in your hands. You can explore by national, regional, Te Whatu Ora District and by population subgroup.

Quality indicator reports

Quality indicators are derived from the aggregated data from all interRAI assessments in a facility, District or region.

The reports show patterns in service delivery over time. Managers can use the information to reflect on their practice, make changes and measure progress. This information also allows providers and Districts to benchmark themselves against a national average.

We produce these types of Quality Indicator reports:

  • A report for each large provider (e.g. Ryman Healthcare)
  • A report for each aged care facility.
  • The visualisation tool has national results for Quality Indicators

Each reports consists of five charts:

  • All care levels combined
  • Rest home level of care
  • Dementia level of care
  • Hospital level of care
  • Psychogeriatric level of care.
