NCEPOD defines its impact as any effect arising following the publication of a report, and this is continually monitored to see both short-term and long term effects.
NCEPOD assesses its impact through social media engagement, local hospital QI projects, citations and national system changes.
Please contact info@ncepod.org.uk with examples of local initiatives, as we are always interested in hearing about the impact of our recommendations.
