ACQSC Clinical Governance Resources - there is help out there!


The Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission have some excellent resources to help providers understand clinical governance. 

The Clinical Governance toolkit includes 4 comprehensive fact sheets. 

Introduction to Clinical Governance

Clinical governance and the Aged Care Quality Standards

Roles and Responsibilities for Clinical Governance - this is a biggy 

Developing and Implementing a Clinical Governance Framework - easier said than done

As part of this toolkit there are also 2 self assessment tools and a Clinical Governance Framework Guide

I would also recommend the National Model Clinical Governance Framework  This has some really simple tables and illustations that help understand how the clinical framework works in principle. Clinical goverance can be challenging to grasp and even more challenging to implement. Simple images and basic practical advise can be extemely helpful. 

I can't write a broadcast about clinical governance without singing the praises of our own book! There is a stack of information out there about clinical governance. What we hear often from the people we help is "what does that actually mean for us?" Accrediation Ready for Aged Care Professionals  helps answer that question. it explains clinical governance in simple language that helps everyone get it. The book backs this up with an assortment of practical advise and easy to use tools that will assist any organisation, no matter how big or small. If you feel your organisation could use a "kick start" in it's clinical governance journey, drop us a line (support@onevault.net.au) and we can have a chat about how our software, consultancy or both can give you a leg up.
