Clinical guidelines

Stakeholder involvement

The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence wants to involve organisations that represent stakeholders in the development of the guidelines on our work programme.

In the NICE clinical guideline development process, stakeholders are:

• national patient and carer organisations that directly or indirectly represent the interests of people whose care is covered by the guideline (‘patient and carer stakeholders’)
• national organisations that represent the healthcare professionals who provide the services described in the guideline (‘professional stakeholders’)
• companies that manufacture the medicines or devices used in the clinical area covered by the guideline and whose interests may be significantly affected by the guideline (‘commercial stakeholders’)
• providers and commissioners of health services in England, Wales and Northern Ireland
• statutory organisations including the Department of Health, the Welsh Assembly Government, NHS Quality Improvement Scotland, the Healthcare Commission and the National Patient Safety Agency
• research organisations that have done nationally recognised research in the area.

Other individuals or groups can contribute to the guideline via the appropriate national, professional or patient organisation. Before completing this form please read either An overview for Stakeholders, the public and the NHS or if you are from a patient/carer group A guide for patients and carers :contributing to a NICE guideline
