New National Model for Clinical Governance

The 2026 National Model for Clinical Governance is designed to enhance the quality of care and improve patient outcomes in Australian hospitals.

This national model is a concise, straightforward document based on principles that outlines essential actions and clarifies the responsibilities within health services to achieve high-quality care. It represents a strategic change in the understanding, leadership, and integration of clinical governance across all health services.

The model:

• raises clinical governance to the top level of organisational leadership and oversight, emphasising the vital role of boards and executives in governing for high-quality care

• transforms Australia's approach to clinical governance by shifting the primary focus from meeting accreditation standards to fostering an organisational culture where delivering high-quality care is the central focus of everyone in a health service, every day.
