Synopsis

This text 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 organization in which they work. The study is based on fieldwork and discussion in nine health units and with four of the health professions. 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.
