This statement defines the importance of continuously developing individuals within the organization and how this reflects on the individuals’ practices and attitude towards their roles.

  • Professional Identity In Australia

    441 Words  | 2 Pages

    As we experience life through our perspective, we naturally develop our beliefs, attitudes values, skills and knowledge that all manifest into our identity. However, in a professional environment our ability to recognize our identity in respect to our professional groups allows the development of our professional identity (Adams, Hean, Sturgis, & Clark, 2006, p.56).

  • Reflection On Clinical Governance

    799 Words  | 4 Pages

    For this assessment, I will be reflecting on what clinical governance looks like in my workplace, with a critique of the framework used within the organization. During the reflection I will discuss what pillars and principles were found, while describing my fellow team members’ understanding of clinical governance and how it is reflected in their practice. Finding the clinical governance framework for my workplace was challenging and time consuming without computer access in place of hard copy policy and procedure manuals. I found clinical governance summerised through the manuals, ensuring compliance of the 44 accreditation standards (Australian Aged Care Quality Agency, 2014) but as Knight, Kenny and Endacott (2015) discuss, while the concept is accepted, there is a gap between theory and practice, which is visual where I work. Pillars and principles such as risk management, efficiency, effectiveness, patient centric and equity are seen throughout the policies, and to analyse more specifically, clinical governance is articulated under categories, consisting of “education and training, clinical audit, clinical effectiveness, research and development and role clarity” (Davies, Chapman & Boyd, 2015 p.45).
