A team of specialist inspectors will carry out assessments of the Island’s health service – and their reports WILL be made public.
A team from the West Midlands Quality Review Service will look at various parts of the Island’s NHS during three one-day visits each year for three years.
They’ll then see if healthcare standards are up to recognised guidelines or improvements need to be made.
Service director Jane Eminson says the inspections will be part of an ongoing process:
