    Infection control and prevention

    Hand hygiene is a vitally important practice for healthcare workers and has a significant impact on reducing the spread of infections in hospitals; these are often called health care associated or acquired infections. Hand hygiene is a different way of thinking about safety and patient care and involves everyone working together including patients, visitors and health care workers.

    Falls prevention

    At Mater, we have designed a program to help prevent patients from falling.  All adult patients across Mater are assessed for their risk of falling on admission and each day they are in hospital.  This allows us to ensure we can monitor patients more closely and use strategies to assist patients with their mobility and transfer when they are at increased risk of falls.

    Mater hospitals are committed to ensuring patients who require medication receive the right medications at the right time.  With around three million medications administered to patients annually when they are in our hospitals, Mater has a continuous focus on eliminating errors in medication prescription, dispensing, administration and patient monitoring.

    Through our innovative Medication Safety Program, Mater has been able to focus on key aspects that contribute to ensuring the safety of patients receiving medications.  We strive to continuously improve our performance using measures that are benchmarked across other Australian hospitals.

Patient safety and quality care is a core focus for Mater in achieving these outcomes. We recognise the importance of this focus and through an ongoing partnership with private specialists we aim to deliver the highest level of rehabilitation care.
