Surveillance Plans

[Janine Egart]

Good Afternoon,

I’m just enquiring if it is a requirement to have a surveillance plan in place and reviewed each year?

Hi Janine

I believe you need to be able to demonstrate your surveillance activities meet the requirement of your facility and patient needs, according to Standard 3.

There may be jurisdictional requirements to have certain documents in place (like IC{MP’s in Queensland) as well, so best to direct any questions to your jurisdiction.

Personally, I think if you have a document that outlines what you are aiming your surveillance at, and why, how the data is collected, and who it is reported to and ow results are reviewed/actioned, then you are in a good space. You would need to review that document on a regular basis (yearly would be reasonable), and when there are significant changes to your service (eg you add an oncology unit or something).

My thoughts, anyway.

Cheers
Michael
