    • Clinical Auditing
    • Mental Health Services

    Background:

    • To create an external appraisal system for validating internal standards.

    Main Methods:

    • Developing a project to facilitate clinical-level standard setting.
    • Assuming audit culture development equates to staff ownership.
    • Creating an external appraisal system to validate internal measurements.

    Main Results:

    • The project aims to increase clinical staff ownership of the audit process.
    • Standard setting and measurement are being initiated at the clinical level.
    • An external appraisal system is under development for validation.

    Conclusions:

    • Fostering an audit culture requires empowering clinical staff with ownership.
    • Clinical-level standard setting and measurement are key to improving audit processes.
    • An external appraisal system can ensure the validity of internally set standards.
