When you visit A&E, we collect lots of information that helps us to monitor our performance.

We publish the data we gather in a set of nationally agreed formats called clinical quality indicators.

The data we collect includes:

• effectiveness of care
• patient experience
• patient safety
• timeliness of care

We analyse the information to help us

• develop better clinical pathways so you get the right care, in the right place, at the right time
• score ourselves against similar sized hospitals
• identify improvements
• review our performance
