Clinical Care Standards

Clinical Care Standards are a suite of concise statements outlining the standard of care patients should expect for a particular clinical condition or pathway, grounded in the latest evidence.

These standards pinpoint critical areas for enhancement and are supported by a set of indicators and metrics to gauge care quality.

The following rheumatology specific Clinical Care Standards are now available:

• Rheumatoid Arthritis Clinical Care Standard
• Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis Standards of Care
• Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care Clinical Care Standards
