The only way to prove you are a leading international hospital is to compare yourself with other world leaders. As far as I am aware there is no other project at this time that would provide you with this opportunity.
Heather Lawrence OBE, Chief Executive, Chelsea & Westminster NHS Foundation Trust
As a clinician focussed on quality, the opportunity to compare outcomes, engage and network with international peers is both exciting and a potentially very valuable opportunity to drive further improvement in patient care.
Dr Carol Peden, Medical Director, Royal United Hospital Bath NHS Trust
