National Safety and Quality Mental Health Standards for Community Managed Organisations (2022)
The Commission has developed the National Safety and Quality Mental Health Standards for Community Managed Organisations (NSQMHCMO) in consultation with consumers, families and carers, community managed organisations, peak bodies, healthcare providers, professional bodies, Primary Health Networks, funders and other representatives of the sector.
The NSQMHCMO Standards for were released on 23 November 2022.
The NSQMHCMO Standards provide safety and quality assurance for consumers, their families and carers, and best practice guidance for community managed service providers.
The primary aims of the NSQMHCMO Standards are to protect the public from harm and to continuously improve the quality of service provision. The NSQMHCMO Standards will provide a nationally consistent statement about the level of care consumers, families and carers can expect from a community managed mental health service. They will also provide a quality assurance mechanism, which tests whether relevant safety and quality systems are in place.
