Quality and performance reports

Through our quality and performance reports, we evaluate our activity against a range of key performance indicators (KPIs).

KPIs are organised into five key categories, which are the same areas the CQC use to rate care providers like us.

They are a mix of national targets that all NHS organisations must meet, and targets we’ve set in collaboration with our partners.

They are:

• Effective: mortality, stroke care, and inpatient and outpatient performance
• Safe: infection prevention and control, patient safety, and maternity care
• Caring: patient feedback, experience, and complains
• Responsive: planned care, cancer care, theatre productivity, emergency care, and ambulance handover times
• Well-led: mandatory training, sickness absence, vacancy rates, and turnover.

As well as helping us understand what we’ve done, the report also helps us:

• Improve our services
• Spot any trends to mitigate issues before they happen, or reduce the impact of risk
• Provide assurances to our partner organisations.

Our quality and performance report is discussed in our committees, helping us to make improvements to our patient care.
