Are you a qualified sonographer or trainee sonographer?


The COVID-19 epidemic has had a vast and varied impact on the Australasian Sonographic Community. To guide future policy and guidelines and for your professional associations to be able to best advocate for their members, it is important to capture the impact the COVID-19 epidemic has had on the Australasian Sonographic Community.


REGARDLESS OF WHETHER YOU DID OR DIDN’T COMPLETE THE FIRST SURVEY, WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO COMPLETE THE SECOND SURVEY. 


All funding for this project is to be returned to participants by offering participants the opportunity to go in the draw to win one of many $50 EFTPOS vouchers.


Please help by clicking on the link below to fill out an anonymous 30 minute survey in regards to your demographics, and how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted your work hours, your work duties, your work protocols, your wellbeing and what changes have been made in your workplace to ensure your safety.

 

At the end of the survey you will be invited to supply your email address should you wish to agree to be contacted to see if you would like to complete a second survey in 6 months’ time and go in the draw to win an EFTPOS voucher for participating in this study.

ACSQHC consent

 
 
Image 265 * 195px

The Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care (the Commission) has developed new guidance for clinicians on how to obtain informed consent in health care.


They have developed a fact sheet to support the health system and ensure that healthcare providers have a shared understanding of the principles and practice of obtaining informed consent.


The fact sheet provides information on the key principles for informed consent, how to obtain valid informed consent, principles for assessing legal capacity, information on legal obligations, and links to further information and useful resources.
