CSPE (Clinical Standards, Protocols and Education) PROTOCOLS AND CARE PATHWAYS

UWS care pathways and protocols provide evidence-informed, consensus-based guidelines to support clinical decision making. To best meet a patient’s health care needs, variation from these guidelines may be appropriate based on more current information, clinical judgment of the practitioner, and/or patient preferences.

These pathways and protocols are informed by currently available evidence and developed by UWS personnel to guide clinical education and practice. Although individual procedures and decision points within the pathway may have established validity and/or reliability, the pathway as a whole has not been rigorously tested and therefore should not be adopted wholesale for broader use.

Visit the CSPE Protocols and Care Pathways here.
