Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) Screening Programme annual report

This inaugural annual report for the Northern Ireland Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) Screening Programme (produced jointly by the Public Health Agency and the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust) looks back on a successful first year for the programme. The Public Health Agency (PHA) is responsible for commissioning and quality assuring the programme. The Belfast Health and Social Care Trust is responsible for providing and managing the programme.Following significant planning, AAA screening was introduced on time in June 2012, as required by the Government's 'Priorities for Action' target. There is no doubt that this was due to sustained partnership working across a wide range of health and social care services within Northern Ireland.
