AUSTRALIAN CHARTER OF HEALTHCARE RIGHTS

The Australian Commission on Safety & Quality in Healthcare (the Commission) launched the 2nd edition of the Australian Charter of Healthcare Rights (the Charter) in 2019. The Charter supports Standard 2: Partnering with Consumers as it describes what consumers, or someone they care for, can expect when receiving health care and is an important component of health literacy understanding. The charter must be accessible for consumers and staff in your clinical area. Many other additional resources including translated copies of the Charter, audio files, a consumer guide and top tips for safe healthcare are available on the ACSQHC website at this link Charter Resources. The Charter is displayed in all NSLHD facilities and is available for download from the ACSQHC website and for ordering from Design and Print services on these codes - NS08887K and NS08887P A Braille version of the Charter is available from the Safety and Quality unit in each NSLHD facility and service. NSLHD REAL TIME PATIENT EXPERIENCE SURVEY (RTPES) The RTPES provides a platform to receive timely patient feedback and has been available in all NSLHD adult inpatient wards since 2021. Each unit/ward can pro-actively view and respond to their own patient feedback allowing for patient safety and quality issues to be addressed timely to improve the patient experience. Contact your manager for more information on your RTPES results. To gather real-time feedback, two questions will be asked of inpatients who have been discharged on the previous day. The information collected from the surveys is reported on the the Patient Experience Survey dashboard on the Quality Improvement Data System (QIDS) . A number of reports on the dashboard is available including the Net Promoter Scores (a scale to represent the likelihood a person recommends a service). The dashboard provides real- time patient experience feedback and updated hourly. Posters are now available to raise awareness of the program. Print versions can be ordered through design and print catalogue NS12815 or available to download an e-version pdf.
