Your Healthcare Rights Matter

At Sherwood Smiles, we are committed to ensuring every patient is treated with dignity, respect, and compassion. Understanding your healthcare rights is a vital step in becoming an informed and empowered participant in your own care.

 

The Australian Charter of Healthcare Rights (Second Edition) outlines what you—or someone you care for—can expect when receiving health care in Australia. These rights apply to everyone, everywhere health care is provided.

 

Please take a moment to read the Charter below. It highlights your right to access safe, respectful, and inclusive care, make informed decisions, and have your privacy protected. We encourage you to speak with our team if you have any questions or need support understanding your rights.
