This documents set out the framework for the creation of Trust wide policies, guidelines and procedures. This includes clinical documents, operational documents and corporate documents. The policy provides the corporate requirements for development of documents, the procedure for ratification, and the requirements after ratification relating to dissemination, implementation, and review. The policy includes requirements set out in the Risk Management Standards by the NHS Litigation Authority and it is expected that staff implement this policy. This policy is to make clear to staff what is required when policies, procedures and guidelines are created, and how they are approved and ratified. This policy will ensure that there is a process to ensure all documentation is consistent in format, compilation and dissemination. This policy will ensure that the Trust meets all its legal responsibilities, and that the Trust conforms to risk management standards, thereby ensuring a high level of safety and effectiveness for patients and staff.
