To Dip or Not to Dip NEW ACQSC resource

The Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission has released a new resource

To Dip or Not to Dip in Australian residential aged care services

To Dip or Not to Dip (TDONTD) is a quality improvement intervention successfully implemented in UK and Australian aged care homes to improve UTI assessment and antibiotic prescribing appropriateness.

This implementation guide has been drawn from the experiences of homes and champions who have implemented TDONTD, along with feedback from aged care nurses and personal care assistance who have used TDONTD resources.
