Medication safety in aged care depends on more than policies and procedures, it relies on shared insight, trust, and timely conversations between the people who live, work, and provide care in these settings. Too often, opportunities to identify medication-related risks or concerns are missed because there is no regular, inclusive forum to surface them. Medication Safety Needs Rounds address this gap by creating a structured, collaborative space focused on early identification of medication safety needs and more responsive, person-centred care.

Pain Science Education and other active management strategies are recommended as first line care for chronic pain conditions. Yet, in private physiotherapy practice, providing education and educational materials to patients can be difficult, particularly where patients are seeking passive treatments.  

The Royal Adelaide Hospital invested significantly in the development of courtyard gardens and public artworks to improve the experience of the hospital environment. Many visitors engage only passively with these courtyards and artworks, leading to the identification of an opportunity to create a reason for people to engage. 

Knee Osteoarthritis is a significant contributor to Australia’s burden of disease.

Accessing information about active management can be difficult, and people with OA are often presented with conflicting information.
