AMA submission on the Foundations of High-Quality Care: draft National Model for Clinical Governance

The revision of the National Model for Clinical Governance provides a meaningful opportunity to highlight the ongoing importance of patient and healthcare worker safety. Clinical governance works best when doctors are engaged in both clinical and corporate governance, as this leads to improvements in professional fulfilment, more effective practice, a culture of wellbeing, and ultimately, improved patient outcomes. Strong clinical governance within the workplace creates resilience in healthcare delivery.
