Long-term sickness absence and depression detection 2009 – round 1

This national clinical audit measures how well occupational health professionals are assessing and managing depression in NHS staff on long-term sickness absence. The aim of the audit is to raise the standard of occupational health care by evaluating performance against evidence-based best practice, working with occupational health practitioners to plan targeted quality improvement interventions and developing the tools to support these interventions. The audit questions reflect evidence-based guidance from the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) on depression and the management of long-term sickness absence.
