The National Safety and Quality Digital Mental Health (NSQDMH) Standards in Australia aim to improve the quality of digital mental health service provision, and to protect service users and their support people from harm.

 

Understanding Accreditation Webinar

 

The Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care share a webinar on Understanding Accreditation to the National Safety and Quality Digital Mental Health (NSQDMH) Standards.

 

A panel of experts explain the accreditation process step-by-step and outline supporting resources.

About the Standards

 

The three NSQDMH Standards include 59 actions related to clinical and technical aspects of digital mental health services. They describe the level of care and the safeguards that a digital mental health service should provide.

 

Implementing the NSQDMH Standards is voluntary for digital mental health service providers. Providers include non-government, public or private organisations, or individuals who make a digital mental health service available for others to use.
