Standards/Audits
Successful healthcare organizations have effective healthcare compliance to operate efficiently and provide safe, exemplary patient care. The aim of the audit is to highlight discrepancies between actual practice and State mandated standards. An audit checklist is useful to evaluate the causes of treatment failure in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis, implementing protocols for Early Sepsis Alarms and reducing the rate of central venous catheter-related infections.
