Accreditation Workbooks have been developed for hospitals and day procedure services. The Workbooks have been designed to provide information on the process of accreditation, such as applying for not applicable items, checklists and tools needed for self assessment. The Workbooks are written to assist quality managers responsible for managing the process of accreditation.
