IMPROVING PATIENT CARE AT CRANBROOK MEDICAL PRACTICE

As part of her Advanced Nurse Practitioner MSc training, Naomi is leading a Quality Improvement Project focused on reducing unnecessary antibiotic prescribing for tonsillitis and Strep A throat.
How are we doing this?
By using a quick, simple swab test called point-of-care testing, we can get accurate results in under 6 minutes! This means antibiotics are only prescribed when truly needed, ensuring:
✅ Better patient care
✅ Reduced antibiotic resistance
✅ Smarter healthcare choices
Together, we’re improving healthcare for everyone!
