Speak Up For Patient Safety

Speak Up For Patient Safety

The Ramsay Rule was created to help keep our patients safe while in care. The initiative is based on Ryan’s Rule (developed by Queensland Health) and elements of the REACH program (developed by the Clinical Excellence Commission).

The Ramsay Rule is a three-step process for the patient, their family, or carers, to escalate any concerns and call for rapid assistance when they believe something is ‘not right’ with the clinical condition of the patient.
