SAFETY, EFFECTIVENESS OF CARE AND RESOURCE USE AMONG AUSTRALIAN HOSPITALS (SAFER HOSPITALS) [ 1/1/2021 - 12/31/2024 ]

Research Grant

Brief description Global concern exists about the safety and quality of health care. Our study will, for the first-time in Australia, evaluate how often untoward outcomes such as adverse events, deaths, and readmission occur after hospital care, how they vary among hospitals that may suggest disparities in quality, and the costs to the health system. The findings will prioritise targets for quality improvement, lead to better monitoring methods, and inform clinical and policy intervention to improve care.
