Quality and outcomes
The best possible clinical outcomes.
Our vision is to provide the best possible clinical outcomes to British standards, with a great patient experience. As our hospital builds its record, our quality measures and outcome data will be published here.
A note from the Chief Medical Officer
Our commitment is to outcomes, measured honestly.
Our vision is to provide the best possible clinical outcomes to British standards. We will measure our care against that standard and, once our hospital has built a meaningful record, publish what we find. We will not put numbers on this page before they are real, and we will not claim a benchmark we have not yet earned. The methodology and the measures we report will be set out here as they are agreed.
What we intend to measure
The measures we plan to publish.
These are the kinds of outcome and safety measures a hospital should be willing to publish. We will report ours once our hospital has a meaningful body of cases, and we will state the benchmark plainly. We are not publishing figures or benchmarks before they are real.

How we approach quality
Quality is a commitment we will evidence.
We will not describe oversight mechanisms we have not put in place. What follows is our commitment; the named systems, boards and audit cycles will be described here once they are operating.
01
Standards
British clinical standards
We deliver care to British clinical standards, as an extension of King's College Hospital London.
02
Vision
The best possible clinical outcomes
Our vision sets the standard we hold ourselves to: the best possible clinical outcomes to British standards.
03
Transparency
We publish what is real
We will publish measures and outcomes once they are meaningful, and we will not claim benchmarks we have not earned.
Reporting
What we will publish, and when.
Our reporting commitments will be set out here once agreed. We will not commit to a cadence or an audience before the process behind it exists.
