SD68 Quality Impact Assessment SOP
This SOP details the obligatory steps to be undertaken when completing a Quality Impact Assessment (QIA) to assess the impact of change schemes in conjunction with an Equality Impact Assessment. This SOP illustrates the required reporting governance for Clinical Executive sign-off; providing an assurance that all relevant stakeholders have been consulted and enabled to contribute to completing the QIA. That all benefits, risks, hazards and issues have been acknowledged, and appropriate controls or actions have been identified to mitigate or remove potential impact on the Quality elements of the QIA. This process also involves predicting and assessing the implications of a change scheme for a wide range of people. Therefore, this SOP must be associated with the Trusts Equality Monitoring Policy SA40.
