Welcome to our newsletter.
As we move into the summer months, it is a good opportunity for us to reflect on what we have achieved, as well as to look forward to the new challenges and opportunities ahead.
In June, we published our 2022 Annual Report which highlighted the wide range of work that HIQA undertook last year. In this newsletter you will find an infographic that provides a snapshot of some of the key facts and figures from last year.
In June, HIQA published its annual report for 2022, outlining its role in working to improve the quality and safety of Ireland’s health and social care services. The report outlines how HIQA resumed full inspection and monitoring activities due to the relaxation of public health restrictions, and how providers, staff and service users all settled into the ‘new normal’ of post-pandemic life.
We have published our annual report for 2021, outlining our work to drive improvements in health and social care services throughout the last year.
We have published our annual report for 2020, outlining how the organisation responded and adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The report outlines how we regulated health and social care services, developed evidence and advice for the National Public Health Emergency Team, and continued to fulfil our remit across other functions such as making recommendations on health information, developing standards for care and promoting quality improvement.
We have published our Annual Report for 2019.
The Annual Report provides an overview of our work across a diverse range of functions including regulation and monitoring, setting standards, making recommendations, health technology assessment and carrying out surveys of care experience to improve the safety and quality of care for everyone.
