HAI methodology

 

Inspection Methodology; HAI (2011)

 

Methodology used by HEI to carry out inspections.

This methodology has evolved over time to ensure that inspections remain robust, supportive, independent and reflects the changing scope of the HEI.  In addition the methodology incorporates the learning gathered from routine inspections, the initial prototype inspections during summer 2009 and further pilots undertaken in October 2011.

We gratefully acknowledge the assistance given to the HEI by NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (2009 & 2011), NHS Tayside (2009) and NHS Borders (2011) and the large number of organisations and individuals who have helped shape the methodology.
