Systematic review collection

The systematic review collection brings together recent peer-reviewed evidence relevant to aged care. It helps workers, managers and policy makers find research quickly to inform implementation into practice.

Systematic reviews help make sense of research by bringing together evidence from multiple studies. They can show what works, for whom and in what settings. 

To learn more about how the systematic review collection is developed, visit our methods page.

For a broader view of a topic, it can also be useful to explore other types of reviews. For support in finding these, see ‘Want to know more?’ in the links below.
