Standards - NSQHS, Accreditation preparation - ISO 9001:2008 / ACHS / AGPAL (like-entities)
PMI offers in-house and external review of documentation; processes and practices via an audit termed "the gap analysis". The Gap Analysis will identify areas for improvement in documentation and practice, consistent with the requirements of ISO 9001:2008, NSQHS, Core Health Standards, ACHS, AGPAL and general business efficiency/streamlining measures.
Our desire is not to ''sell' you a new system; rather we assist you to efficiently maximise your existing documentation and practical processes and systems.
.
This program will benefit if:
- You are still uncertain about some requirements for accreditation
- The quality program needs to be aligned or implemented to your service requirements
- You are a new facility and need some advice on establishing a quality system and continuous improvement processes
- You need to provide staff with education to facilitate and support identified gaps in your documentation and/or service delivery
- You have had a major staff turnover, and have not yet achieved continuity in your quality systems
- You are experiencing difficulty in managing multiple tasks, including preparation for accreditation.
The Managing / Executive Consultant conducts the preliminary audit within your facility and provides 'The Gap Analysis Outcome' report ¹. The audit would usually be conducted over a 2-3 day period dependent upon the size of your facility.
