Quality Audit & Research Coordinators (QuARCs)
QuARCs are a national network of engaged clinicians delivering research and quality improvement initiatives
Quality Audit & Research Coordinators (QuARCs) are the HSRC's main point of contact within a trust for national audits, quality improvement projects, multi-centre research and other academic issues.
The QuARC network facilitates the HSRC's aim to be the 'glue' between clinical anaesthesia and the research agenda through the comprehensive audit of perioperative care, national quality improvement initiatives and the maintenance of a network of active engaged clinician researchers.
