Quality Improvement Committee (FRO)

Terms of Reference

This Committee is the group responsible for developing policy focused on improving the quality of the delivery of radiotherapy and radiation oncology.

This will be done by monitoring new technologies and approaches to treatment and providing advice to Fellows and others about standards of practice and the integration of quality improvement into the Faculty's departmental accreditation program.

Specifically, this involves:

  • Being responsible for overseeing the development of the departmental accreditation program
  • Reviewing guidelines developed by special interest groups prior to publication
  • Being the expert body for advice to the Faculty board and other committees regarding standards of practice with specific reference to published guidelines (internal/NBCC/NHMRC and others)
  • Undertaking investigations and providing advice on best practice of specific areas as they arise (e.g prostate seed brachytherapy, patient records)
  • Providing advice to the Faculty Board and its committees in regard to applications under MSAC and similar.
  • Initiating and monitoring quality improvement projects (i.e. ACHS indicators, AIMS, dosimetry)
  • Monitoring new technologies in Radiation Oncology.
