GATES 6Ss Accreditation Framework©
With our extensive experience in Accreditation & Standardization, you can rest assured that your goals will be met and sustained. We can work with you on any of the below processes:
Healthcare Standards Development
Internationally recognized standards help health systems develop and assess central issues such as governance, leadership, infection prevention and control, medication management, and access to care which all affect the quality of care that the patient receives. Such standards generate a strong healthcare apparatus that policy makers, payers, providers, and the public can rely on, assuring high quality health services where it matters most.
Our standards development process relies on an evidence based approach taking into consideration best global practices, but is executed according to a specific country or region’s conditions and context. Established through a rigorous diagnosis process that includes diverse committees and stakeholders consultation, we work to make your healthcare standards the best that they can be.
Accreditation Preparation
Successful accreditation is an important part of providing the best possible care for your patients. For healthcare organizations and medical practices, it's important to comply with high quality standards, especially if you have a specialty. With increased competition and health awareness, getting accredited can set your organization apart on many different aspects.
By working with an ISQua accredited organization such as GATES, you can be sure that we’re up to date on all the latest healthcare trends, making sure that you implement accepted healthcare practices, and that we will successfully guide you to get your desired accreditation wether from local authorities or international bodies such as JCI, Accreditation Canada, Standards Australia, or any other.
Advisory for ISQua EEA Accreditations
Public and private healthcare organizations seek to elevate their standards and practices continuously, and one way to do that is by obtaining the ISQua Accreditation(s). Through its External Evaluation Association (IEEA), ISQua provides three accreditation programs:
Health and Social Care Standards (view guidelines)
External Evaluation Organizations (view guidelines)
Surveyor Training Program (view guidelines)
Having obtained the accreditation and re-accreditation for the Surveyor Training Program, as well as working towards obtaining the other two accreditations and being an ISQua member since 2016, we stand at a strategic point to advise our clients who are seeking any or all types of ISQua Accreditation(s) given our extensive field experience.
