Services

The services provided by the Clinical Liaison Services include:

  • Assist the established coronial processes in the investigation of healthcare deaths.
  • Formation of a validated method for classifying and recording information that may be related to adverse events within health care institutions. This information will have many uses, including the analysis of individual or clusters of such cases and the reporting of trends that may be useful in the early recognition of underlying systems issues in health care organisations.
  • Explore how coronial data can be used effectively to inform changes to the health care system and whether there are possible reforms to the coronial process that will enhance the value of coronial data for patient safety initiatives.
  • Identify the reform priorities that reflect the interests of coroners, health departments and health care professionals throughout Australia for patient safety.
  • Improve the dialogue between coroners, health departments and health care professionals about adverse events and deaths in healthcare settings.
