About the Report
Healthcare associated infection (HAI) is one of the major causes of ill health in the general population. The main aim of the NHS Quality Improvement Scotland (NHS QIS) Standards for Healthcare Associated Infection (HAI) Infection Control is to assess how well an NHS Board/Operating Division is managing the risk of infection to patients, staff and visitors. As a result, the standards focus on organisational structures and processes within the healthcare setting which are needed to identify, assess, and treat specified risks.
Below you will find summary information, the national overview and local reports.
