NACEL Quality Improvement
Documents
Our quality improvement work centres around the NACEL 2024 driver diagram and healthcare quality improvement plan.
Healthcare Quality Improvement Plan
The NACEL Healthcare Quality Improvement Plan identifies 5 areas of focused improvement, outlining the rationale for each area and how performance against each area will be measured.
The plan also sets out how the NACEL team will support quality improvement, from national to local levels.
Key Indicators
Ten key indicators have been identified by the NACEL Team and NACEL Steering Group as the audit headline metrics to support quality improvement in care at the end of life.
Driver Diagram
The NACEL Driver Diagram was developed to help focus all aspects of the NACEL 2024, including quality improvement.
It acts as a framework, articulating 10 indicators of good quality end of life care and identifying areas that may need improvement to achieve these.
Mapping Document
This document maps each question and its audit element to the Primary and Secondary Drivers. It also outlines which questions are used as a Key Indicator or for the Management of Outliers Analysis.
