Join us in celebrating National Medical Laboratory Week 2024, from April 14 to 20, as we honour the dedication of Medical Laboratory Professionals (MLPs) who enable safe, high-quality health care every day.
This year the Canadian Society for Medical Laboratory Science (CSMLS) is shining a spotlight on the MLPs who are ‘Behind Every Patient’, dedicating their expertise to meet the demands of the evolving health care system.
We are pleased to announce that the Point-of-Care service at William Osler Health System – Withdrawal Management Centre has achieved ISO 15189 Plus™ accreditation. In choosing this option, the facility sends a clear signal of commitment to quality for staff, patients, and other healthcare providers.
On November 29, 2023, Accreditation Canada’s Echocardiography Quality Improvement (EQI) team, in collaboration with the Ontario Association of Cardiologists (OAC), hosted a well-attended virtual information session on EQI Program Standards. Participants striving to meet accreditation standards in Cardiology labs (hospital and private facilities) engaged in this annual interactive session with EQI experts. The collaborative efforts of EQI and OAC teams have led to an accreditation program that prioritizes the needs of both patients and medical practitioners.
From October 23 –27, Accreditation Canada (AC) Diagnostics recognizes Canadian Patient Safety Week to inspire improvements in health care safety and quality. Healthcare Excellence Canada collaborates with patients and partners, and leads this annual campaign to advance improvements and changes to enable everyone in Canada to have safe, effective, and high-quality health care.
We are pleased to announce the release of Version 5 (October 2023) of the Accreditation Canada (AC) Diagnostics Diagnostic Imaging Requirements.
