Reducing the risk of hospitalisation for older adults in primary care

Join us for an engaging and practical webinar for general practice teams committed to improving care for older adults.

This webinar will explore how quality improvement (QI) activities can be embedded into everyday workflows to support safe, effective, person-centred care for older patients, leading to increased independence and prevention of hospitalisation.

Drawing on real-world data, the QI coaching team from WA Primary Health Alliance will showcase how to use PDSA cycles, QI registers and patient data to drive improvements in areas such as chronic condition management, preventive screening, health promotion and multidisciplinary team care.

Webinar topics include:

  • Understanding current hospitalisation rates.
  • Identifying at-risk patients using Primary Sense.
  • Applying preventative care strategies through structured health assessments.
  • Promoting vaccination for preventable disease.
  • Implementing chronic condition management plans and falls prevention that support long-term health and independence.
  • Utilising QI methodologies to ensure continuous enhancement of outcomes and service delivery.

Attendees will receive access to our updated QI Tool Kit, editable templates for registers and PDSAs as well as a 2025 planner and ongoing access to webinar recordings and presentation slides.
