NICEAssure
Manage NICE Guidelines & Quality Standards
NICEAssure is a single, fully content-managed Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) application designed to manage both NICE Guidelines and NICE Quality Standards in combination or as individual frameworks. The application delivers automatic standards updates, ensures the efficient distribution and implementation of latest guidelines and manages action plans associated with becoming compliant.
NICEAssure can be used as a stand-alone application or in conjunction with other applications to provide a comprehensive quality governance and compliance solution.
With a constant flow of new Quality Standards and Guidelines, and with the importance placed on them by the CQC, Monitor and NHS Commissioning Boards, it is becoming increasingly important that you have the ability to not just track and monitor the changes but also implement them at recommendation level.
NICEAssure enables you to keep up with ongoing changes and monitor your compliance status without any significant administrative burden. In addition, the application provides powerful evidence-linking and assessment tools that allow you to build a quality-assessed library of evidence and assurance.
“Without having the NICE Quality Standards on NICEAssure we would have to consider how we were going to monitor our compliance. Gathering evidence for compliance would likely mean employing a person to complete this task, with NICEAssure we can do it within current resource.”
