HQS
Surveyors
Surveyors
are valued members of the HQS team. Indeed they are often referred
to as the "life-blood" of our whole process. Recruited
from the senior ranks of the healthcare industry, they bring
to HQS a wealth of experience, knowledge and wisdom.

Our
surveyors are all volunteers. They make a commitment to
five days over a 12 month period as well as attending
annual update sessions and contributing to the development
of standards and the HQS process. In addition to surveys
throughout the UK, there are now opportunities to participate
in surveys in hospitals in Portugal, Denmark and the Republic
of Ireland and primary health care teams in Germany.
Being a surveyor is demanding but very stimulating. It
brings benefits to the organisation you are surveying,
to your own organisation and to you as an individual.
It provides opportunities to observe and disseminate good
practice. It gives one of the best opportunities to ensure
continuous personal development. CPD approval from several
royal colleges and professional organisations has been
received for surveyor events and surveys. |

selected are required to sign a letter of commitment in which
the terms of engagement are defined. In addition, a statement
of confidentiality is agreed with each surveyor. Performance
criteria are monitored regularly and organisations are asked
for formal feedback on various aspects of their surveyors.
