Carers Australia has lodged a submission on the draft third edition of the National Safety and Quality Health Service (NSQHS) Standards, welcoming the focus on person-centred care while calling for stronger recognition of carers as essential partners in healthcare.

Evidence from Australia and overseas shows that when carers are identified, informed and involved, patient outcomes improve, medication safety is strengthened, hospital readmissions can be reduced, and transitions from hospital to home are safer.

Our message is clear: carers are not visitors to the health system. They are vital partners in care, and their expertise, knowledge and wellbeing should be recognised and supported at every stage of a patient's healthcare journey.

Always great to catch up with our friends at Community Business Bureau - CBB.

Following Community Business Bureau's recent recognition as the first South Australian organisation accredited by Carers SA under the Carers + Employers program, Carers SA staff, Helen and Cathy, joined the team today to continue building this valuable partnership.

The session helped their staff gain a greater understanding of the vital role Carers play in our communities, recognise caring responsibilities in their own lives, and learn about the support available through Carers SA.

Want to make your workplace more Carer-friendly? Our training can help your team better understand and support employees balancing work with caring responsibilities.
