The Health and Social Care Standards Strategy outlines the strategic direction for the health and social care standards team in HIQA for 2022-2024. It outlines our vision, along with the strategic objectives we aim to achieve in the coming years.

There are four high-level areas we will focus on to support quality and safety in health and social care services in Ireland:

• Developing national standards
• Supporting implementation of standards
• Disseminating standards and implementation tools
• Being a trusted voice relating to health and social care standards.
