Inhaltsangabe

* What is clinical audit? What are its components and sequences?
* How can clinical audit be used by health professionals to improve the quality of their service?

Making Use of Clinical Audit is based on a project sponsored by the Department of Health which was undertaken in collaboration with members of professional bodies representing clinical psychology, occupational therapy, physiotherapy and speech and language therapy.

It explains to members of the health professions the nature of clinical audit, and how they can use it in order to support them and the organizations in which they work.

The study is based upon fieldwork and discussion in nine health units and with four of the health professions. It will be useful, however, to the whole range of health professions and to those concerned with the introduction of quality assurance outside the health service.

The book is written by members of teams from Brunel University's Centre for the Evaluation of Public Policy and Practice and the King's College, University of London, Nursing Research Unit who between them embody expertise in clinical audit and practice, including clinical education and training, and the organization and evaluation of health services.

The book is intended to present both the theoretical and policy backgrounds to clinical audit and to give guidance to those who wish to advance it.
