Clinical Service Disclaimer

General information only

The service pages describe general home-care enquiry categories. They do not provide diagnosis, medical advice, prescriptions, procedural instructions or clinical assessment.

Role boundaries

Clinical tasks must only be assigned to appropriately qualified and authorised professionals, subject to applicable law, registration, competence and scope. Non-clinical caregivers and attenders do not perform nursing procedures or make clinical decisions.

Treating team instructions

The treating healthcare professional remains responsible for diagnosis, treatment decisions and clinical instructions. Families should clarify changes to medicines, feeding plans, wound care or monitoring with the appropriate clinician.

Emergencies

JNS website enquiries are not an emergency response service. For an emergency or sudden deterioration, contact local emergency medical services and the treating healthcare team immediately.

Review

The final disclaimer and service descriptions should be checked by an appropriate clinical adviser and the organisation’s auditor before publication.
