The responsibilities placed on providers include managing risks, maintaining compliance, and using evidence-based best practice clinical procedures with competent staff. It is essential that you have designated a responsible person to oversee clinical services, who holds a current nursing qualification (or equivalent), such as a Registered Nurse, with AHPRA registration.
