Staff training and education by Accredited Hospital 

Excerpts from Dr Prem’s Guidebook – Hospital Quality, Safety & Patient Rights

Prior to accreditation regulations, staff members within a hospital just went about their daily routine of treating patients. However, with the ever changing landscape of medicine, new scientific discoveries are being revealed every day. A physician or nurse might be great at their job, but if they are not keeping up with the latest technology or implementing the newest protocols, then they are not providing their patients with the highest level of quality care.

Accredited organizations urge the process of continuous improvement where staff members are constantly trained and educated about the latest advances relevant to their field. Through conferences and workshops medical professionals can utilize the new information to better their practices. Besides just the latest advances, accreditation requires staff members to understand the management of hazardous materials. This is a focus which falls under facility management and safety, which again is important for patient safety and satisfaction.
