I am currently preparing to carry out some kind of audit of the healthcare setting I am training in. The idea is to look at quality of care delivered
compared with national benchmarks. I am interested in how much Foucault would have seen this as aiming to improve patient experience - it's
ostensible aim, and how much it would be seen as a tool of panoptical 'institutional gaze'. Any thoughts, or good references?
