The Royal College of Chiropractors’ Quality Standards are tools designed to help deliver the best possible outcomes for patients. They are a series of specific, concise quality statements with associated measures that provide aspirational, but achievable, markers of high-quality patient care covering the treatment of different conditions. They also form an important part in the process of improving quality and patient outcomes.
Launched at the AGM last week, the RCC’s Low Back Pain & Sciatica Quality Standard updates and replaces the RCC’s Quality Standards on Chronic Low Back Pain and Acute Low Back Pain. It covers the chiropractic assessment and management of adult patients (aged 18 and over) presenting with low back pain, with or without sciatica, but excludes serious spinal pathology.
