ACCREDITATION PROCESS GUIDE

Although it is prudent to designate back-up staff to participate in the inspection process, in practice this may not be adequate. If an inspection team arrives and some key member(s) of the laboratory leadership team is off that day, it can result in chaos. Considerable time may be wasted finding various manuals and documents. Tension builds. It might even lead to a second day inspection.

• In order to make our clients' day uneventful and successful in any circumstance, we prepare this Accreditation Process Guide. Our clients' experiences have proven that this organization is extremely helpful.
• The compilation consists of all the critical documents such as
  • Physical layout plan of the laboratory
  • QIP manual
  • Safety Manual
  • Competency document binder
  • National Patient Safety Goals (NPSG) policy/processes/procedures folder
  • Process Improvement Plan Binder along with Process Improvement documents
  • Any other documents unique to your laboratory that demonstrate your compliance
  • Location of other pertinent information critical to the inspection that cannot be included in this manual (procedure manuals, preventive maintenance logs, personnel files)
