Making a difference to practice: clinical benchmarking. Part 1.

In the first of two articles, the authors describe how an internal clinical practice benchmarking group was established in Preston to compare and share examples of best practice. The aim was to ensure consistent high standards of care practice across the trust. Activity related to discharge planning and visiting is used here to illustrate the effectiveness of clinical practice benchmarking as a continuous quality improvement tool. The second article will appear in Nursing Standard on May 3.

The authors conclude by summarising the value of clinical practice benchmarking and how it made a difference to practice in their trust. The first article appeared in Nursing Standard last week.
