These guidelines are intended for those developing, assessing, procuring and implementing IT systems for medication management and electronic prescribing to:

• Understand how design contributes to patient safety
• Apply the recommendations during software development and iteration
• Evaluate systems during procurement

This guide explains what the 10 elements for safe and high-quality end-of-life care mean for you as a patient, and for families, carers and consumers.

The National guidelines for on-screen presentation of discharge summaries specify the sequence, layout and format of the core elements of hospital discharge summaries, as displayed in clinical information systems.

The purpose of this guide is to provide practical guidance for managers and practitioners responsible for credentialing, and for determining and managing, a health practitioner’s scope of clinical practice. This is an ancillary guide only. It does not replace or supersede state, territory or organisational policies on credentialing.
