Our Work
QOs have become a key part of regional infrastructures set up to drive the quality agenda by making information
and data available to allow frontline quality improvements.
Here in the North East, NEQOS has become a hub for healthcare quality measurement and we deliver an ambitious programme of projects and services to teams and organisations across the region. Using in depth reviews and surveillance measures, we assist organisations when they have particular issues to address and our support has helped organisations build on their existing arrangements to enable local benchmarking whilst also identifying opportunities for quality improvements.
