Help develop the National Safety and Quality Health Service (NSQHS) Standards (third edition)

Survey for Health Professionals

Have your say

The Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care (the Commission) is developing the NSQHS Standards (third edition). These Standards will be based on the latest evidence and thinking. They will address new risks in healthcare, and focus on ensuring patients receive appropriate and sustainable person-centred health care now and into the future.

Your feedback will help shape these new standards. The survey asks for views on:
  • Key challenges
  • Evidence based practices
  • Healthcare system change
  • Integration, outcomes and performance
  • Standard design, structure and language
  • The NSQHS Standards (2nd ed.)
If you are a consumer, please go to the consumer survey.
