The service is expected to undertake 11,780 scans annually.The overarching aims of the service are:* To ensure Patients receive the right test at the right time and in the most clinically appropriate local setting * To aid early diagnostics and avoid the need for unnecessary referral to secondary care, or to support the shift of activity in to a primary care setting* To ensure diagnostic testing is integrated across pathways of care, that the report and images follows the Patient and can be clearly viewed on the IT system and that there is no unnecessary duplication of investigation* To develop local diagnostic service provision that improves access and enables Patients and referring clinicians to access a choice of provision according to Patient choice, clinical need and relevant care pathways* To ensure diagnostic tests are appropriate, necessary, clinically correct, of high quality, with timely access and reporting* To ensure that imaging is compliant with the recommendations of the national evidence based interventions programme* To provide patients with an excellent patient experience* To ensure that patient safety is a core priority for the service and that patients can be assured of the same level of examination and report quality from community NOUS as from other ultrasound service providers in the region.* To ensure that a culture of continuous quality improvement is embedded in the service* To ensure that the service is able to evolve and innovate according to the needs of the local population and future changes in clinical management pathways
