Consulting
Approach |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Our services are tailored
to each organization's philosophy, organizational structure,
accreditation experience, size, time frame, and current
accreditation status. We may develop or refine operating
manuals, policies, procedures and forms, conduct a mock
survey, provide on-site training, set up an agencies' own
tracer process, or focus on a particular system, like
quality improvement or governance. The results are clear:
every organization we have helped prepare for
accreditation has obtained it on their first survey. |
