Our quality priorities

Patient-centred assessment

Care planning based on symptoms, physical health, medicines, functioning, safety, family context and the person’s goals.

Medication safety

Accurate prescribing, administration, monitoring, reconciliation and review of benefit, adverse effects and interactions.

Risk and safety planning

Structured recognition, communication and management of clinical, behavioural, medical and environmental risks.

Continuity of care

Clear handovers, documented treatment plans, discharge preparation, follow-up and guidance about warning signs.

Patient rights, dignity and privacy

Mental-health care should be respectful, non-discriminatory and proportionate to clinical need. The care team should explain treatment, seek consent where required, protect confidentiality, support participation in decisions and involve nominated representatives in accordance with patient preference, capacity, safety and applicable law.

Clinical governance

01

Defined processes

Policies and clinical pathways support consistent assessment, treatment, documentation and escalation.

02

Multidisciplinary review

Relevant professionals coordinate care and review changing clinical and functional needs.

03

Monitoring and learning

Feedback, outcomes, incidents, audits and service data can identify improvement priorities.

04

Corrective action

Findings are translated into practical changes, training, accountability and follow-up review.

Physical-health and infection safety

Psychiatric treatment should include attention to physical health, medicine-related risks, nutrition, mobility, sleep and relevant investigations. Infection-prevention measures, environmental hygiene and appropriate medical escalation remain important parts of hospital care.

Questions, feedback or concerns

Patients and families are encouraged to ask questions about the care plan and raise concerns through the treating team or hospital contact channels. Immediate safety concerns should be reported to staff without delay.
