Patient Safety & Quality Data

Our Commitement to Patient Safety and Quality.

Patient Safety is simply defined by the World Health Organisation as the prevention of errors and adverse effects to patient associated with healthcare.

At Prince Court Medical Centre, patient safety is paramount. We have created a culture where emphasis is given to patient safety, ultimately increasing awareness and trust as healthcare providers via communication and leadership.

Antimicrobial Stewardship (AMS) Data

At Prince Court Medical Centre, carbapenem usage has shown a notable downward trend, particularly between 2023 and 2024, where overall usage reached 13%. This decline underscores the effectiveness of the Antimicrobial Stewardship (AMS) program, which emphasizes judicious and targeted antibiotic use rather than blanket reductions. By fostering responsible prescribing practices, the AMS initiative plays a critical role in mitigating antimicrobial resistance and ensuring safe, high-quality care and optimal outcomes for patients.
