Abstract:

The white paper, Trust, Assurance and Safety, called for clinical audit to be revitalised. In response, in April 2008 the Department of Health appointed the Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership (HQIP) to manage the National Clinical Audit and Patient Outcomes Programme (NCAPOP) and to support local clinical audit activity. HQIP is led by a consortium of the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges, the Royal College of Nursing and the Long-term Conditions Alliance. Its purpose is to promote better health care by providing support and advice to those responsible for managing quality improvement work.
