Participants on the NCEC’s guideline and audit appraisal panels

The National Clinical Effectiveness Committee (NCEC) was established in 2010, as a partnership of patient safety stakeholders. Its mission is to provide the framework for the national endorsement of clinical guidelines and audit to optimise patient and service user care. The patient and/or public representatives on the NCEC Committee are involved in many ways, including as regular working group members, as conference/event speakers or panellists, and even as recruiters and interviewers for NCEC sub-group members. The Committee meets quarterly, and as required.
