I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question. I am advised of the following.
(1) The ''National Safety and Quality Health
Service Standards: Second edition'' was implemented in January 2019,
and the WA Country Health Service, great southern, including Albany Health
Campus, was the first service in WA to be assessed against this version of the
standards. The region has been fully accredited for a further three years,
following an assessment process in July.
(2)–(4) Not applicable.
