Department of Health and Social Care -
This document sets out the terms of reference for the independent review of children’s hearing services in England, to be chaired by Dr Camilla Kingdon (a consultant neonatologist and former President of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health). The review will consider: NHS England’s response to the service failures in paediatric audiology; how the relevant governance arrangements between NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care could be improved and identify lessons learned; and how NHS England’s handling of any future service failures in similar services could be improved and identify lessons learned.
