ANZHFR 2021 Annual Report
The ANZHFR is very pleased to be able to provide you with the 2021 Annual Report. We would like to express our appreciation to all the people who have been involved in collecting, collating and analysing the data for this report and those who have put in a great effort progressing it to completion. We hope you will find the Annual Report enlightening and useful as you continue in your endeavours to improve the quality of hip fracture care for your patients. The Australian State report is included in both the Clinical Care Standard Report and the Full e-Report, rather than as a separate Supplementary report as in previous years. For the first time, the reports also include an Outlier Report, which monitors hospital performance against the quality indicators and enables sites to easily see areas of high quality care or those that require review. A PowerPoint slide pack has also been provided should you wish to use it. The slides follow the structure of the Clinical Care Standard Report (excluding Australian State Report and they can be customised to highlight your hospital’s performance and add in any other relevant information e.g., additional figures from the full report or other site-specific information. There is included a pull-out text box and pointer for the hospital level charts. These can be moved down the axis, to line up with your hospital. The pointer and text box can also be positioned separately – simply click on the text box if you need to move it whilst leaving the pointer in place. This is useful towards the bottom of each slide. If you want to highlight more than one hospital, the pointer and text box can be copied and pasted

QUALITY STATEMENT 4:
Timing of surgery
A patient presenting to hospital with a hip fracture, or sustaining a hip fracture
while in hospital, receives surgery within 48 hours, if no clinical contraindication
exists and the patient prefers surgery.
QUALITY STATEMENT 5:
Mobilisation and weight bearing
A patient with a hip fracture is offered mobilisation without restrictions on
weight bearing the day after surgery and at least once a day thereafter, depending
on the patient’s clinical condition and agreed goals of care.
QUALITY STATEMENT 6:
Minimising risk of another fracture
Before a patient with a hip fracture leaves hospital, they are offered a falls and
bone health assessment, and a management plan based on this assessment, to
reduce the risk of another fracture.
QUALITY STATEMENT 7:
Transition from hospital care
Before a patient leaves hospital, the patient and their carer are involved in the
development of an individualised care plan that describes the patient’s ongoing care
and goals of care after they leave hospital. The plan is developed collaboratively
with the patient’s general practitioner. The plan identifies any changes in medicines,
any new medicines, and equipment and contact details for rehabilitation services
they may require. It also describes mobilisation activities, wound care and function
post-injury. This plan is provided to the patient before discharge and to their general
practitioner and other ongoing clinical providers within 48 hours of discharge.
