I’m Stef McLaughlin, Prescript’s Operations, Leadership & Giving Manager. I wanted to give you an overview of PQS and what it means for doctors and hospitals.
Prescript takes great pride in representing our doctors across Australia, NZ and globally. We work with a mix of hospitals, clinics and private practices.
I know that paperwork can be time-consuming and often tedious. We want working with Prescript to be straightforward for both the doctor and for the health service.
Each Australian health service is unique. That means that different checks and paperwork are required for each location/health service we work with. Often the paperwork requested overlaps – understandably, this can be a significant cause of frustration for some of our doctors!
Because of this, I introduced PQS (Prescript Quality Standards). This is a set of paperwork standards and background checks that we use as a foundation for each doctor we work with. I want everyone we work with to have peace of mind that each Prescript doctor has met a consistent level of checks.

“Since implementing PQS, it has made everyone’s life easier. Our doctors can rely on PQS to help their applications stand out, as well as minimise duplication of paperwork. ”

At Prescript we’re known for helping solve the regional doctor shortage in Australia.
Every day we’re focused on two clear outcomes - Helping hospitals find doctors that create departments and clinics that run better, have more capacity and less stress. And placing Doctors in jobs that leave them feeling highly valued, rewarded and, most importantly, enjoying what they do.
We believe that when we get these two crucial things right, it has a huge impact on the regional doctor shortage and the healthcare of communities across Australia.
