Acute Care Service Accreditation Tick

We are thrilled to announce that our Acute Care service received 100% compliance on the recent Australian Council on Healthcare Standards (ACHS) Accreditation audit.

The audit involved an independent onsite assessment against the National Safety and Quality Health Service (NSQHS) Standards.

This is a testament to our Acute Care team who only recommenced services in late February this year upon the re-opening of our Rochester campus, and the care that is delivered to our patients every day.

Congratulations to our fantastic team for their contribution and participation during the audit.

REDHS Acute Care service aims to support our community by providing great local health care options close to home, with 10 single-bed rooms, each equipped with modern facilities to meet the diverse needs of our community.

Our highly skilled team of RIPRN nurses, supported by VMO and Telecare doctors, provides care for medical admissions across a variety of illnesses, injuries and conditions.

The service is also supported by REDHS allied health team (including dietitians, podiatrists, physiotherapists, social workers, occupational therapists), hotel and support services staff.

We also support patients with a range of care, services and targeted programs including:

Transition Care Program – both bed based and community based (care at home)
