If a single word dominates the recent white paper, Caring for our future, it is "quality". The word is dotted throughout the white paper and an entire chapter is devoted to the concept.
The white paper stresses the government's desire to drive continuous quality improvement in services. The health secretary, Andrew Lansley, for example, states in the foreword that "the quality of care and support that people receive can vary considerably ? And all too often, the system only grinds into action in response to a crisis, rather than acting quickly to prevent one."
