The Quality and Safety Commission is focused on risks to consumers. They now take a “risk based proportionate approach” to the assessment of residents in Residential Aged Care facilities. Their expectation is that every resident receives the care they need all of the time. 

Risk profiling is the most effective way of providing clarity around the high impact high prevalence risks of each consumer in the home. It involves a detailed and ongoing assessment of every resident’s individual risks and whether there are managed adequately or not. 

• Fast and effective identification of high risk residents and high impact high prevalence risks new and emerging and if those risks are being managed or not 
• Complete risk profile for each resident that is easy to understand and actionable for the Home’s care management team and improved accountability of the team.  
• Take pressure off your existing care management team stretch themselves further. 
• Cost effective Governance System – save on existing quality resources, you won’t need anywhere near as many quality staff.  
• Demonstrate the organisation continually monitors risks to consumers and takes appropriate action if a risk is not managed or has increased.  
• Give Executive and Board live information on exactly where their risks are and progress with managing them back to safety.
