## Notice

To Apply please go to https://www.mytenders.co.uk/Default.aspx The reference for this requirement is JAN159160. A central tenet of the Chief Nursing Officer for England's vision is to ensure that the nursing and midwifery collective voice is heard across health and social care so that the professions' contribution is valued and listened to in all decision-making conversations. To do this, an engaged and powerful workforce is crucial so that changes can be driven forwards locally to meet population need and address local, regional and national unwarranted variations and inequalities. Local Accreditation is described as "the development of a set of quality standards so that areas of excellence can be celebrated and areas for improvement identified; a structured quality framework". Although locally designed and as a result recognised under different terms and specifics, "local accreditation" aims to provide us with the tools to bring together key measures from across nursing and clinical care into a single overarching quality framework which can enable those working within an environment to undertake a comprehensive assessment of quality of care at ward, unit and team levels. "Local accreditation" throughout this document refers to nursing but incorporates midwifery services too. The research question for the supplier to address is: "What are the key principles and processes (including what works well and challenges) of successfully implemented "local accreditation models"? This will give the our team an opportunity to work with these organisations to share the learning with other organisations earlier in their quality improvement journey. Nursing, midwifery and care staff leadership provides a strong vehicle to ensure that staff can create and deliver the transformation agenda across health and care and the CNO vision (three priorities); A workforce that is fit for the future, renew the reputation of our profession for the future and a collective voice that is powerful and heard
