We put the safety of our patients and residents first and look for opportunities to improve our care and services. Quality and safety are paramount at Cabrini. A culture of quality improvement requires strong governance.
Cabrini’s clinical governance structure includes our Patient Experience and Clinical Governance Board Committee. A range of committees monitor patient risks and work to prevent risks and improve the quality of patient care. Our planned approach to continuous quality improvement involves reviewing and improving each stage of the patient journey and includes audit, feedback, service redesign activities and innovation. Our quality improvement approach ensures ongoing development of strategies and measures to enhance safety for patients and residents, minimise risk and optimise service quality.
Cabrini’s promise to our patients, residents, families and each other includes the following key principles:
- We put patient and resident safety first
- We ask questions to understand the problem
- We admit when we make a mistake and seek a solution
- We look for opportunities to improve our care and services
