    The Future Direction of National Clinical Audit in Scotland

    NHS Quality Improvement Scotland currently has distinct clinical audit and clinical indicators work programmes. The organisation is now developing and integrating these work programmes, in order to facilitate the more effective usage of clinical data by NHSScotland to drive improvements to the delivery of clinical care and outcomes for patients.

    Project objectives

    The aim is to develop a coordinated programme of work which aims to facilitate the more widespread and effective usage of national clinical datasets by NHSScotland to drive improvements to the delivery and outcomes of patient care.
