Organisation Details

  • SIGN

    Created/last updated: 08/02/2023  

    Aims and objectivesSIGN writes clinical guidelines for all NHS staff - including doctors, nurses, dentists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists - and also for patients. SIGN guidelines give advice on the best treatments that are available. We write them by working with NHS staff as well as with patients, carers and members of the public. The guidelines are based on the most up-to-date medical research evidence.

    Patients, carers and members of the public play an important role in our work. Involving patients and carers in the development of our guidelines allows their views and their experiences to complement the evidence and the knowledge and experience of healthcare professionals.
    SIGN has begun to produce patient information booklets which are based on our clinical guidelines. These booklets explain the recommendations in the clinical guideline; and help to make patients aware of the tests and treatments they should expect to receive from the NHS. We want to make sure that patients.
