Clinical<br />
governance<br />
report<br />
<strong>Monash</strong> <strong>Health</strong> is a public health service; a body corporate<br />
established under Section 65P of the <strong>Health</strong> Services Act 1988,<br />
as amended in 2005 and listed in Schedule 5 of that Act.<br />
Excellence is our standard<br />
Our Clinical Governance Framework<br />
outlines the structure and processes,<br />
leadership, and culture that are in<br />
place and the outcomes monitored to<br />
ensure we provide accountable, safe,<br />
effective, efficient patient-centred care<br />
underpinned by continuous improvement.<br />
It is based on the Victorian Clinical<br />
Governance Framework (June <strong>2017</strong>)<br />
and the Australian Safety and<br />
Quality Framework for <strong>Health</strong>care<br />
(December 2010).<br />
Key quality indicators are available<br />
on dashboards customised for<br />
each ward, unit and program and<br />
prominently displayed on quality<br />
boards in all wards.<br />
The health service performance<br />
against pre-determined quality<br />
indicators are tracked and reported<br />
monthly to Clinical Council, <strong>Monash</strong><br />
<strong>Health</strong> Executive, and the <strong>Monash</strong><br />
<strong>Health</strong> Board.<br />
