Ensuring that patients who deteriorate receive appropriate and timely care is a key safety and quality challenge. All patients should receive comprehensive care regardless of their location in the hospital or the time of day. Even though a range of systems have been introduced to better manage clinical deterioration, this area remains a high priority while patients continue to experience preventable adverse events because their deterioration is not identified or properly managed. It has been found that healthcare staff has good theoretical knowledge but that they often fail to respond appropriately.
