Purpose of the consultation
The
National Assembly for Wales’ Health
and Social Care Committee has undertaken a short inquiry into the work of Healthcare Inspectorate Wales (HIW).
The
terms of reference of the inquiry were to focus on:
- The effectiveness of HIW in undertaking
its main functions and statutory responsibilities.
- The investigative and inspection
functions of HIW, specifically its responsibility for making sure patients
have access to safe and effective services, and its responsiveness to
incidences of serious concern and systematic failures.
- The overall development and
accountability of HIW, including whether the organisation is fit for
purpose.
- The effectiveness of working
relationships, focusing on collaboration and information sharing between
HIW, key stakeholders and other review bodies.
- Consideration of the role of HIW in
strengthening the voice of patients and the public in the way health
services are reviewed.
- Safeguarding arrangements, specifically
the handling of whistleblowing and complaints information.
The consultation has now closed.
