RIGHTS & RESPONSIBILITIES
Staff support the Australian Charter of Healthcare Rights developed by Australian Commission of Safety and
Quality in healthcare.
The Charter describes the rights of patients and other people using the Australian healthcare system. These
rights are essential to make sure, that wherever and whenever care is provided, it is of high quality and is safe.
This Charter recognises that people receiving care and people providing care all have important parts to
play in achieving healthcare rights.
The Charter allows patients, consumers, families, carers and services providing healthcare to share an
understanding of the rights of people receiving healthcare.
This helps everyone to work together towards a safe and high quality health system. A genuine partnership
between patients, consumers and providers is important so that everyone achieves the best possible
outcomes.
For confidentiality reasons, information about patient treatment and test results can only be conveyed by the
doctor with the patient’s permission.
Such information is therefore not discussed in general over the phone due to inability of staff to verify relatives’
identity. A brochure explaining full patient rights and responsibilities can be obtained from the hospital and is
available on our web site www.calvarywakefield.org.au

Antibiotics
Antibiotic are medicines used to treat bacterial
infections. While the development of antibiotics
has been one of the most important advances in
medicine, widespread use and misuse has led to
some bacteria becoming resistant to commonly
used antibiotics. “Antibiotic resistant” bacteria
are those that are not controlled or killed by an
antibiotic.

The Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Healthcare developed the National Safety and Quality
Health Service Standards following extensive public and stakeholder consultation. The Standards are a
critical component of the Australian Health Services Safety and Quality Accreditation Scheme endorsed by
the Australian Health Ministers in November 2010.

The Standards provide a nationally consistent and uniform set of measures of safety and quality for
application across a wide variety of health care services. They propose evidence-based improvement
strategies to deal with gaps between current and best practice outcomes that affect a large number of
patients.

The Standards are designed to assist health service organisations to deliver safe and high quality care. This
document presents the ten National Safety and Quality Health Service Standards required to fulfil them.

Patients and carers have an important role to play in the safe delivery of health care. As a partner with
health service organisations and their healthcare providers, patients and carers will be involved in making
decisions for service planning, developing models of care, measuring service and evaluating systems of
care.

They will also participate in making decisions about their own health care and for this they will need to know
and exercise their healthcare rights and be engaged in their health care and treatment decisions. Patients
and carers will have a need to access information about options and agreed treatment plans. Health care
can be improved when patients and carers share – with their health care provider – issues that may impact
on their compliance with treatment plans.
