Clinical Audit Awareness Week (#CAAW20) – Highlights

27/11 Day 5 Final Day of #CAAW20

Last day of what has been an excellent week around where our community have risen above the pandemic and shined a bright light on clinical audit as a tool for improving patient care.

Please join us at 11 am today where we will pause for a moment and hold a one minute silence to remember colleagues, family and friends that we have lost to the pandemic and in particular Ben Woodhart.

23/11 6:00AM Welcome to Clinical Audit Awareness Week #CAAW20 

Welcome to Clinical Audit Awareness Week #CAAW20. This year will be obviously both different and difficult due to the pandemic and ongoing pressures on our hospitals, organisations, colleagues and ourselves.
 
During such times it is even more important for our week of learning, sharing and celebrating to continue as planned just like we have all year so that we can help grow our profession, our networks and our local programmes to improve patient care together. It is also a time to reflect and say thank you to the people that matter most – and our networks would exist without you so thank you for all you do. 
 
So please get involved and take some time this week to listen, learn, share, say thanks and also to have some fun 🙂 
 
As ever – we will keep our CAAW20 blog, Forum and twitter updated with key events from across our networks and beyond. Please share and join us where you can. 
 
 
Please like and share – lets see if we can get #CAAW20 trending on twitter
 
Today we (with HQIP) are announcing #AuditHero Clinical Audit Professional of the Year (see below for further details)
 
We are also holding a webinar – details below 
 
 
 

Later today we will be sharing more details of our forward plan and new supporting governance so please let us know what you think and how you can help. 

Its our time to shine together

Stay safe
