Are you a health professional passionate about improving patient outcomes? Your insights can help improve coordinated care, discharge planning, and follow up care for people with sepsis and those bereaved by sepsis.
Today, the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care released the NSQHS Standards User Guide for the Health Care of People with Intellectual Disability.
Today the Commission has published the first national standard to support better diagnosis and management of the condition – the Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Clinical Care Standard.
One in 13 Australians over the age of 40 have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but alarmingly only half of them know they have it.
Awareness of this incurable lung disease – which makes it difficult to breathe – lags considerably behind other serious chronic health conditions, despite COPD being a leading cause of avoidable hospitalisations.
You are invited to participate in the Commission’s public consultation to review guidelines for critical results management of pathology and diagnostic imaging.
