Seven key attributes were identified for high-performing person-centred healthcare organisations.

The Venous Thromboembolism Prevention Clinical Care Standard contains seven quality statements describing the care that people should expect to receive during and after a hospital stay to help reduce their risk of blood clots. These fact sheets explain each quality statement, what it means, and what you can do to have an active role in your care.

This fact sheet provides useful information on each step of a colonoscopy procedure from referral to post-procedure report.

A fact sheet for clinicians outlining the safe and appropriate use of colonoscopy to maximise patients' benefits from the procedure and reduce the risk of harm.

The goal of the Venous Thromboembolism Prevention Clinical Care Standard is to ensure that all adults presenting to hospital (as defined in the scope of the clinical care standard) have an assessment of VTE risk and bleeding risk that is formally documented. It also aims to ensure that VTE prevention is
appropriately prescribed and used to reduce avoidable death or disability from hospital-acquired VTE.

Clinicians can use the clinician fact sheet to support the delivery of high-quality care to help prevent hospital‑acquired VTE.

The Consumer Fact Sheet for Osteoarthritis of the Knee Clinical Care Standard gives further details on the 6 Clinical Care Standards.
