Each year in Australia, hundreds of people die because they cannot be treated successfully for antimicrobial-resistant infections, and the situation is worsening globally with the increasing rates of resistance to many antibiotics.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is when bacteria develop mechanisms to resist the killing effects of antibiotics or antifungals, so these medicines stop working.
A model of care outlines the way a digital mental health service is to be delivered. As well as providing a structured guide to service delivery, and supporting best practice, the model of care can be made available to service users, helping them to make an informed choice about whether the service is right for them. This checklist will help you develop a model of care, or review your existing model, to ensure it is comprehensive and robust.
