At the core of health care innovation and improvement are the individuals who dedicate their expertise and passion to advancing the profession. We are proud to celebrate three outstanding professionals who have been recognized with prestigious awards for their significant contributions to the health care and medical laboratory fields.

The Accreditation Canada (AC) Diagnostics ISO 15189 Plus™ Diagnostic Imaging program is growing! In 2023, the provincial government of Newfoundland and Labrador took a significant step by implementing this program for all 42 imaging services sites across the province. These facilities have successfully completed their self-assessments, and the first on-site-assessments are scheduled to take place in the fall of 2024. 

Accreditation Canada is assembling a team of active and experienced volunteers for the Integrated Community Health Services Centres (ICHSC) Diagnostics Decision Panel.

Joining the Accreditation Canada team as an ICHSC Decision Panel member presents a unique opportunity to enhance health care quality and patient care in Ontario. By leveraging your expertise and commitment to excellence, you will play an integral role in helping community surgical and diagnostic centres to meet and exceed quality standards.

In 2023, Accreditation Canada’s Echocardiography Quality Improvement (EQI) team embarked on a new accreditation initiative aimed at enhancing the quality of care for pediatric cardiology patients. Even with the successful implementation of an adult echocardiography (echo) accreditation program in Ontario, a similar program tailored for the pediatric population was noticeably lacking. Recognizing the importance of implementing comparable quality standards and elevate care for this population, the EQI team initiated a volunteer pilot program in early 2024 to assess pediatric echocardiography facilities.
