Clinical indicators

Our practice records and uses patient data to support quality improvement activities.

Having accurate and up-to-date information about patients helps your practice provide safe, high-quality care, and ensures that other healthcare providers to whom you refer a patient also provide a suitable standard of care. Health summaries reduce the risk of inappropriate management, including medicine interactions and adverse side effects (particularly when allergies are recorded). Having accurate and up-to-date information on medicines means that you can achieve best practice prescribing.
