We did it again! 👏👏

Karalta General Practice is officially QPA Re-accredited.

Every three years, general practices go through a comprehensive assessment against national standards. That includes everything from infection control and emergency procedures to staff training, privacy, patient safety — and plenty more!

We are pleased to share that we have successfully met all requirements.

While we always aim to provide the highest standard of care, accreditation is formal recognition that our systems, processes and team approach meet strict national benchmarks.

What does this mean for you?
It means our entire team — GPs, nurses, reception and management — are committed to delivering safe, consistent, high-quality care for you and your family, every single day.

Reaccreditation reflects our dedication to best practice, continuous improvement, and maintaining a practice you can trust.

A big congratulations to our whole team — it’s a fantastic achievement 👏

What is MyHealth Record

My Health Record is a secure, online summary of your key health information, available to all Australians with a Medicare card or Individual Healthcare Identifier. It consolidates information from doctors, hospitals, and Medicare, including vaccinations, pathology results, prescription records, and hospital discharge summaries, allowing authorized healthcare providers to access vital data anytime, especially in emergencies.

Key Information Available in My Health Record
Clinical Documents: Shared health summaries, event summaries, hospital discharge summaries, specialist letters, and e-referrals.
Medications: A list of prescriptions and dispensed medicines, including adverse reactions or allergies.
Test and Scan Reports: Pathology reports and diagnostic imaging reports (e.g., X-rays, CT scans).
Immunisations: A history of vaccinations.
Medicare Data: Information from Medicare, such as Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) and Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) claims, plus organ donor information.
Consumer-Entered Data: You can add personal health notes, emergency contact details, and advance care planning documents.

Control and Access
You control your record, including what information is stored and who can access it. It can be accessed through 1800Medicare App. While most Australians have a record, individuals can opt out or deactivate it at any time.

If you haven’t had a heart health check recently, now is a great time to book in with your GP.

This Wednesday is Primary Health Care Nurses Day, and we celebrate the wonderful nurses who provide the backbone to everything we do here at KGP. Without their compassion, skill and dedication to patients we would not be able to provide the care our patients deserve.

Follow along with us this week as we reintroduce our nurses and shine a light on their impact here at KGP.
