Guideline assurance for NHS Trusts.
Support safe, effective, and well-led care with a single, auditable view of national clinical guidance.
NHS Trusts rely on large volumes of guidance from NICE and other national bodies, often accessed inconsistently across specialties and sites.
Common issues include:
- Limited visibility of which guidance is being used in practice
- Local pathways drifting out of alignment with updates
- Manual effort to prepare evidence for CQC, audit, and internal review
- Unified access to NICE and other UK guidance in a structured, traceable format
- Clear linkage between national guidance and local policies or pathways
- Organisation-level visibility to support governance and oversight
- Preparing evidence for CQC inspections (Well-led, Safe, Effective)
- Reviewing the impact of guideline updates across specialties
- Supporting audit, quality improvement, and clinical governance meetings
How this fits NHS governance
Orient teams to the NHS governance standards CliniSearch supports.
- Traceable links from recommendations to source guidance
- Version history and update timelines
- Exportable logs to support inspection and audit
- Evidence packs that explain how guidance is used, not just that it exists
Trusts typically start with a pilot in selected specialties, review usage and governance outputs, and then scale access across services with agreed assurance requirements.
CliniSearch supports organisational governance and clinical decision support. It does not replace professional judgement or local policy. Responsibility remains with the organisation and clinicians using the information.
