Response to external clinical audits of residential aged care services
In 2018, Standards Wise was engaged by the State Government to undertake clinical audits of all residential aged care services operated by the then Country Health SA Local Health Network. The purpose of the audits was to provide a strong basis for regional LHNs to make improvements in our governance and operational strategies, as well as to improve our systems and processes for aged care.
