We have a Quality team at the CCG to ensure we commission high quality and safe services from NHS and Independent providers. This involves gaining assurance that:
The majority of the team have a clinical background, enabling us to understand clinical issues, help find solutions and make improvements to services. We work alongside GPs, Contract and Commissioning managers to monitor and review performance of hospitals. We also work with other partners for example, Sheffield City Council, the Police and Voluntary Sector, to raise standards of care.
