Director, Clinical Governance

In my capacity as acting in an executive leadership role, I have responsibility for overseeing program management across four key sections within the branch: Interoperability Implementation, Conformance and Assurance, Digital Health and Aged Care Standards, and Connections. During this period, I guided the teams through a transitional phase following a restructuring initiative and mid-year budget review for an $18.5m budget. My role enabled uninterrupted workflow while managing high-profile projects and providing critical guidance to Directors in supporting their teams, in high profile work subject to public scrutiny.
I facilitated the successful delivery of the inaugural quarterly report relating to interoperability plan activities, and supported the third Council For Connected Care meeting focused on Standards.

A/Branch Manager, Connected Care

In this executive acting role, I led program management for five sections in the branch, including Clinical Governance, Interoperability Implementation, Conformance and Assurance, Digital Health and Aged Care Standards, and Compliance Outreach. I oversaw executive engagement by leading the development of senate estimates papers and progress reports for the senior executive committee. I led the branch through budget repair efforts and advising on realignments and repair actions. I supported the preparation of the Council For Connected Care and coordinated acceptance of the National Interoperability Plan from jurisdictions across Australia.

Does clinical governance make sense in digital health?

Can clinical governance be applied in nearly any industry to drive excellence and culture?

ABSOLUTELY!

The fundamentals of clinical governance can apply to any industry and is effectively "good governance" for any organisation that touches the health and care sector 🤗 

What underpins clinical governance (or health and care governance as I prefer to call it!) is a culture of safety and security (of people and systems), quality (of service and product) and continuous improvement (to learn, change, grow, stay curious).

Governance is needed for our patients, clients, customers, students, consumers, users, employees, members - whomever it is that you deliver your service for. Without them, what we do won't matter!

I love to discuss and challenge this concept! If this interests you too:

Together, we can improve governance!

Stay curious and inspired,
