Perineal protection project - audit tool
COMPLETE
Summary
Severe third- and fourth-degree perineal tears can lead to long-term physical and psychological injuries for women. Outcomes can be improved through consistent evidence-based care, as outlined in the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care (ACSQHC) Third and Fourth Degree Perineal Tear Clinical Care Standard (April 2021).
Parental Recognition of the Deteriorating Child Quality Improvement Pilot Project
Children in the emergency department deteriorate unexpectedly. Many paediatric sentinel events and coroner cases have recurring themes related to a parent’s/carer’s inability to effectively escalate their concerns about their child's deterioration while in the emergency department. Early recognition of deterioration is fundamental for providing timely treatment and improving outcomes for children in the emergency department.
Aim
Improve the early recognition of deteriorating children in the emergency department.
Pandemic Kindness Movement
The Pandemic Kindness Movement was created by clinicians across Australia, working together to support all health workers during the COVID-19 pandemic.
They have curated respected, evidence-informed resources and links to valuable services to support the wellbeing of the health workforce.
