The Clinical Auditor is responsible for undertaking clinical audit projects aimed at producing changes to LAS practices and improving the quality of care delivered to our patients. This includes examining the treatment given by ambulance crews to the patient and the suitability of the level of the emergency response provided.
The Clinical Auditor designs and sets-up projects; collects, inputs and analyses data, writes reports and formulates recommendations for changes to practice.
Our strategy outlines how we plan to achieve this, and is centred upon three missions focused on:
Our care – delivering outstanding emergency and urgent care whenever and wherever needed.
Our organisation – being an increasingly inclusive, well-led and highly skilled organisation people are proud to work for.
Our London – using our unique pan-London position to contribute to improving the health of the capital.
To achieve these three missions we have set ourselves 50 commitments to deliver over the next five years. In developing these ambitious commitments, we have engaged extensively both inside our organisation, with our partners and with our patients, and we have analysed population trends and horizon scanned the future.
The Clinical Audit & Research Unit (CARU) is part of the Clinical & Quality Directorate and is responsible for the LAS's clinical audit and research activities and programmes. Clinical audit enables CARU to systematically monitor and review the quality of the care given by the LAS. Through the results of our clinical audit and research projects we recommend, and track the implementation of, appropriate changes to practice that are aimed at improving patient care both locally and at a national level.
