As a healthcare provider we are required by law to publish a Quality Account report and make it available to the public. Quality Accounts are an important way for local services contracted to the NHS to report on quality and show improvements in the services they deliver to local communities and stakeholders.
The quality of the services is measured by looking at patient safety, the effectiveness of treatments that patients receive and patient feedback about the care provided.
