Have you heard of Ryan's Rule?
It's a three step process to support patients, as well as their families and carers, to raise concerns if a patient’s health condition is getting worse or not improving as expected.
Patients of any age admitted to one of our hospitals—including the emergency department—and in some Hospital in the Home (HITH) services can call Ryan’s Rule by following these steps. 👇
Once Ryan's Rule is enacted, a nurse or doctor will undertake a clinical review of the patient and their treatment.
Ryan’s Rule is not for general complaints and should only be used for concerns related to a patient’s health condition while they are in hospital.
