Clinical audit. Watching the detectives.
An audit of a trust's audit department, first established eight years ago, showed that most managers and clinicians viewed it positively. But it was not seen as capable, on its own, of producing changes in practice. Some departments were unsure about the services of the audit department. A standard form for audit reports is to be adopted in the trust. The evaluation will be repeated in a year's time.
