Quality & Safety Corner Hospital Acquired Complications
Thank you to all clinicians for providing exceptional clinical care to patients at Ryde Hospital. Clinical performance data shows a statistically significant reduction in the rate of two Hospital Acquired Complications (HAC). As of January 2025, Ryde Hospital has achieved a 33% reduction in the rate HAC Delirium and a 49% reduction in the rate of HAC Respiratory Complications (e.g. aspiration pneumonia, respiratory failure) when compared with the rates in Jan 2024 FYTD. This is a testament to the hard work of all clinical teams in providing high-quality evidence-based care to patients. This includes conducting appropriate clinical risk screening and implementing care strategies to reduce the risk of these conditions.
Quality Café Ryde Hospital is launching a new Quality Café, where staff are welcome to join (and bring their coffee) to listen to short presentations on QI projects around the hospital. In addition, staff can bring their questions about a Quality Improvement idea or trouble shooting for an existing project to Janine (Quality) and Catherine (Redesign). All welcome. Poster can be found in the Noticebaord section.
