摘要
Background: In 2001, the ACOVE (Assessing Care Of Vulnerable Elders) quality indicators (QIs) were developed in the US to measure the quality of care of vulnerable elderly patients. However, the ACOVE QI set was developed mainly to assess the overall quality of care of community-dwelling vulnerable elders (as opposed to hospitalized elderly). Therefore, they need to be adapted when used in a non-US hospital setting. In addition, the ACOVE QIs depend on patient and caretaker interviews to assess the quality of care.
