- Reviewed and improved procedures regarding Plan of Care for after-hours presentations
- Scheduled a debrief and ongoing support for staff about these matters when suitable
- Reviewed after hours security arrangements
- Management have referred the episode for broader review by Primary Health Management meeting
The ANMF will be in contact with members soon to provide ongoing support and assistance with this and other matters.
