You'll learn about the focus areas of accreditation programs and the top five benefits accreditation provides, as well as get answers to frequently asked questions about the process. You'll also learn the top questions you should ask about your organization to determine if it's ready for accreditation.
Accreditation offers a cost-effective way for you to assess your organization against world-class healthcare standards. At the end of the process, you'll know your organization's strengths and the improvements that could be made to the quality, safety, and efficiency of its services.
As the primer relates, at the beginning of accreditation, you'll receive standards suited to your organization's services or programs to put into practice. Your organization will be regularly evaluated to determine if it's meeting the standards; if it isn't, the accreditors will determine if you and your staff have time to make new processes, policies, or procedures, or to improve your existing ones.
Once your organization has completed the accreditation program, the quality and safety of its client care will have been improved, or you'll know how you and your staff should go about making improvements. You'll also be able to make better use of your resources to encourage enhanced healthcare results.
Besides its primer on accreditation preparation, Accreditation Canada offers a downloadable, interactive worksheet that'll help you choose an accrediting body. The worksheet walks you through the process of finding an accreditor that is best suited to your needs and that will provide the best value.
