Democracy Involvement and Accountability in the NHS
These documents relate to Democracy Involvement and Accountability in the NHS – a wide policy area which includes governance and influence and shared decision making, participation, involvement and consultation of both the public and patients. As we have been discussing these issues for many years policy documents listed here may not represent our current thinking. See also Health Scrutiny and Accountability
