At the end of October 2015 Perth Clinic was audited by Global-Mark against three sets of standards:
• ISO 9001:2008 Quality management systems – Requirements;
• Australian Commission on Safety and Quality. National Safety and Quality Health Service Standards, 2011 and
• National Standards for Mental Health Services, 2010.
The Clinic achieved full accreditation to all three sets of standards with no recommendations. Additionally 16 “Met with Merit” ratings were awarded for having a robust quality and risk management system, strong focus on improving patient safety and quality of care, involvement of patients and supporters, patient monitoring (clinical deterioration), clinical handover and medication information to patients.
