What is accreditation good for?
”Managers perceived that accreditation ‘was good for’
improving the overall quality of care, promoting
systematization, increasing standards for professionalism
and a common language for understanding and enshrining
patient safety. However there were major concerns with
cumbersome paperwork. Participants suggested that
extensive documentation and bureaucracy sometimes
destract form patient care activities.”
