Discover the Key Drivers in Clinical Care Excellence for Aged Care Providers

Delivering clinical care excellence is at the heart of high quality aged care.  Embedding quality clinical governance is vital for the sustainability and growth of aged care organisations. It requires a mindset of innovation and improvement, creating a coherent framework and of fostering a proactive atmosphere where new ideas can be embraced.

Accurate and timely documentation is a critical aspect of quality clinical care.

It is well known that paper documentation of a client’s clinical history can be error-prone and very costly. Embracing technology to reduce or eliminate paper documentation is proven to increase productivity, deliver cost efficiencies, reduce errors and put vital resident information at the clinician’s fingertips, at the point of care.

Quality management and risk reduction are key drivers of excellence in care.

Providing a coherent framework of clinical governance, rather than a series of unrelated initiatives requires commitment from all aspects of an organisation. Utilising the latest technology to achieve best practice processes and interventions can improve clinical outcomes. Identifying and understanding any risk related issues, prevents recurrence and provides the ability to put risk reduction systems in place.

Streamlining processes Increases efficiency and accuracy.

Streamlining operations for flexible, accelerated delivery and incorporating best practices together with accurate procedure documentation will drive excellence, consistency and lower operating costs.

High quality service support and clinical documentation aids providers to be competitive.

Good communication and workflow are key drivers of excellence, sustaining a service that is proactive and effective. Comprehensive and timely reports are critical to providing key insights to management. Clinical governance is improved by creating flexible Care Plans that reflect the client’s aspirations and needs. This ensures staff are working in partnership with residents for quality care outcomes.
