Objectives |
To provide a self assessment tool
through which organisations can assess and continue to
develop and improve their services by reference to
external standards. At present, standards are available
for hospitals (particularly small to medium sized ones),
and Day Services. Work has been undertaken on Learning
Disability Services, Primary Care and Mental Health
Services for the Elderly, and Community-based Services.
The Scheme has the
potential for development to cover a wider range of
services. The Board is exploring these links to other
services.
To support preparation for Health Commission visits.
To assure the Health Commission that there is an
on-going process for maintaining quality development.
Through the delivery of the Scheme to offer individual
development opportunities for staff, which will benefit
both them and their organisations.
To offer those who commission health services an
objective means of being assured of the general quality
of such services |
