ELDAC Advance Care Planning and Palliative Care Organisational Audit
This interactive (fillable) pdf can be completed online, downloaded and printed for your organisation’s records. The audit should be completed by a staff member who has clinical and organisational knowledge of the palliative care and advance care planning processes and care provided in the service. In some instances, consultation with other staff may be required to complete the audit. Once completed bring the audit to the working group to identify areas for quality improvement. The Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission has a template that can be used to plan continuous improvement activities. The quality improvement plan should be reviewed at every working group meeting.
It is recommended that the organisational audit be completed at least yearly and the results used as part of your organisation’s accreditation documents. Provide a date for when the audit was completed and a date for future review.
The ELDAC Organisational Audit has been revised to address the learnings from Phase 1 of ELDAC and to align with the Aged Care Quality Standards. Version 2 is available below.
