RACGP Standards
The RACGP has developed Standards for general practices (the Standards) with the purpose of protecting patients from harm by improving the quality and safety of health services. The Standards support general practices in identifying and addressing any gaps in their systems and processes. The Standards were developed over a three-year period in consultation with general practitioners (GPs), Practice Managers, nurses, consumers and many other stakeholders. The process included stakeholder workshops, public consultation and piloting the Standards in Australian general practices.
