Guidance for Best Practice Management in the National Bowel Screening Programme.

As part of ongoing quality improvement, the National Bowel Screening Programme (NBSP) has developed draft clinical guidelines for the health sector entitled ‘Best Practice Management in the National Bowel Screening Programme’.

The guidelines will provide guidance to practitioners involved in the Bowel Screening pathway, supporting clinical decision making and providing advice to participants.

The NBSP has consulted on these draft guidelines with the clinical groups and professional bodies, using the Ministry’s online consultation tool. A final version of the guidelines will be published following consideration of the consultation feedback.

Consultation period is closed

Submissions closed at 11.45 pm, Friday 18 January 2019.

Comments from the consultation will be collated and considered by the NBSP Clinical Oversight Group. Views will be used to inform and finalise the Guidance to be adopted. The final version of the Guidance will be published on the Ministry's website and will also be distributed directly to providers.
