MEASLES and the MMR Vaccine

In recent years the uptake of childhood vaccinations has steadily declined in Leicester, Leicestershire, and Rutland (LLR). The decline locally in our area has been more dramatic than the national trend. This leaves our children and, through them, our entire population, more exposed to the risk of catching many vaccine-preventable diseases.

Clinical Governance

Clinical governance is the system through which NHS organisations are accountable for continuously improving the quality of their services and safeguarding high standards of care, by creating an environment in which clinical excellence will flourish.

Clinical governance encompasses quality assurance, quality improvement and risk & incident management.
