South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust's Quality Account
What is a Quality Account?
A Quality Account is a document produced each year by a healthcare provider (such as a hospital or an ambulance se). The idea is that this document is a way of monitoring the quality of a health service.
The aim of having Quality Accounts is to:
- ensure that services continue to focus on the qualityof their service; and
- to make services more accountable to the public.
The LINk has a role in that it can comment on any organisation's Quality Account before it is published. If you would like to get involved in commenting on next year's Quality Account for any local organisation, please get in touch with Chris on chris.wakefield@helpandcare.org.uk.
