Abstract

The St. Vincent’s University Hospital (SVUH) virtual fracture assessment clinic (vFAC) service was formalised in August 2024 with the introduction of a clinical specialist physiotherapist. Previously, patients attended the fracture clinic to access physiotherapy/nursing interventions. The aim of this audit was to review compliance with the National Clinical Programme (NCP) key performance indicators (KPIs) over a 10-month period and to audit a snapshot of the vFAC outcomes over a 4-month period, based on the updated National vFAC data collection spreadsheet.
