The Primary and Community Healthcare Standards aim to protect the public from harm and improve the quality of health care delivered by describing a nationally consistent framework, which all primary and community healthcare services can apply when delivering health care.
The Primary and Community Healthcare Standards were formally launched on 12 October 2021. More information about the launch is available in Background.
