Quality & Governance

We operate within a robust, CQC-registered clinical governance framework.

The Medical and Diagnostic Care Group is a CQC-registered clinical services provider. Every clinical service we design, mobilise and deliver is built around a governance framework that covers patient safety, clinical leadership, workforce assurance, information governance, incident management and performance reporting.

Our Clinical Leadership Team

Clinical governance at MDCG is led by a named clinical leadership team, directly accountable for the safety and quality of every service we deliver. Our clinical leads set standards, review performance and maintain the clinical governance frameworks underpinning our services.

Every clinician deployed by MDCG, whether a consultant, specialist nurse, allied health professional or support worker, undergoes a rigorous pre-engagement compliance process before undertaking any clinical activity. This process is maintained and monitored throughout each programme.

Patient Safety

Patient safety is embedded in every process we design and every service we deliver. Our safety framework spans the entire clinical pathway, from referral through to discharge, follow-up and escalation.

  • Activity report
  • Waiting list position
  • Utilisation report
  • Clinical outcomes and onward pathway data
  • Governance and safety incident summary
  • Patient experience and feedback
  • Workforce compliance summary

    Our Testimonials

    I was extremely impressed by you and your team… my safety, comfort and dignity were absolutely respected throughout… In short, my experience was exemplary - more like private medical care than anything I have previously experienced in the NHS.

    The whole team went above and beyond what was expected… I’ve had this procedure twice before, previously the experience was not good… this time I couldn’t have asked for a better team excellent throughout.
