The collaboration between the National Office of Clinical Audit (NOCA) and Public and Patient Interest representatives (PPI) over the last two years has helped to provide a new depth to the work carried out by the various audits. The unique perspective brought by PPI ensures that a patient centred focus is maintained and compliments the work of the audit and NOCA. It also ensures that the data in the national reports are used to reach a wider audience beyond healthcare personnel.
