The SQAO Conferences aim to:
- Promote patient safety through research into intensive care safety, quality, audit and outcomes assessment methodology
- Continue the cycle of project planning and implementation related to intensive care safety, quality, audit and outcomes by rigorous assessment of priorities, appropriate method design, efficacy assessment and large scale roll-out of successful programs
- Assess, develop and teach management strategies for effective implementation of proven programs especially where Australasian research has shown beneficial outcomes
- Engage the research community in high quality intensive care safety, quality, audit and outcomes initiatives in order to reduce the “friction between research and quality”
- Continue a process of rigorous assessment of local and international safety and quality initiatives in the Australasian context
- Further develop cross-specialty and cross-discipline dialogue and learning in areas of statistics and epidemiology, human behaviour, organisation and change management, qualitative and quantitative research, industrial monitoring techniques and economics.
