Accreditation of Quality and Patient Safety Training Programmes 

The purpose of this feasibility study is to develop a set of standards and assessment methodology to assess quality and patient safety training programmes.  

The draft standards have been piloted with two organisations based in India and Jordan and the submissions reviewed by our surveyors. 

We will meet with the working group in December to discuss the feedback from the pilot exercise. 

We will then make any additional changes required to the draft standards and assessment methodology. 

Similarly, we hope to finalise these standards in early 2021 and to then plan the roll-out of this new programme.  

We would like to thank Danielle Dorschner, Paul van Ostenberg, Virginia Matthews and Kirsten Peddie for assisting us with the piloting of the draft standards for these new programmes. 

We appreciate the time and effort that you put into the pilot and your feedback was invaluable in helping us to identify where additional changes may be required to the draft standards.
