Summary
REACH is a system that helps patients, carers and family members to escalate their concerns with staff about worrying changes in a patient's condition. It stands for Recognise, Engage, Act, Call, Help is on its way. REACH was developed by the New South Wales Government Clinical Excellence Commission in collaboration with local health districts and consumers. It builds on the surf life‐saving analogy for recognition and appropriate care of deteriorating patients by encouraging patients, carers and their families to 'put their hands in the air' to signal they need help.
