Clinical Meetings

It is essential to meet the current Standards that Practices hold regular meetings to discuss clinical care (1.5.3B ) and recommended that Practices hold regular staff meetings (4.1.1G). The use of an agenda to establish the topics for discussion is an ideal way of setting a framework for meetings.

Minutes/notes should also be taken during the meeting in order to keep an accurate record of what was discussed and any actions that need to be implemented. The use of these tools will assist with providing structure to your meetings and therefore a record of satisfying these Indicators.

GPA has developed an ASSIST plus sample agenda and minute template to assist practices in organising these meetings. To obtain a copy, go to our Assistance Page or contact the GPA office on 1800 188 088!
