Cognitive impairment resources
The Commission has developed a range of resources to help improve the safety and quality of health care for people with cognitive impairment or at risk of delirium.
Our new cognitive impairment resources can help to:
- Provide information for people with cognitive impairment, their carers and family members
- Provide information for health service organisations to help them improve the quality of care and health outcomes for people with cognitive impairment or at risk of delirium
- Support implementation of the NSQHS Standards (second edition)
- Augment existing resources, such as the NSQHS Standards Guide for hospitals, and should be read in conjunction with these
- Provide links to further resources and examples of approaches to delivering health care to people with cognitive impairment or at risk of delirium
There are a range of additional cognitive impairment resources available on the Commission's Caring for cognitive impairment website.
