Accreditation Unit
@thejag.org.uk
Accreditation is a supportive process of evaluating the quality of clinical services and promotes quality improvement through highlighting areas of best practice and areas for change, encouraging the continued development of the clinical service. The RCP has a long history of driving up high quality care by setting standards against what good practice should look like. The Accreditation Unit at the RCP manages a range of accreditation programmes, with the aim of improving the quality, safety and experience of patients and improving service delivery. We do this by developing standards with a multi-professional group of clinicians, managers and patients and working to an accreditation pathway which involves self-assessment and improvement against the standards. Accredited services submit evidence annually to demonstrate that they are continuing to meet the standards and have a 5-yearly on-site assessment carried out by our experienced assessment team. The Accreditation Unit manages accreditation programmes in a number of clinical services, including inpatient diabetes (DCAP), allergy (IQAS), liver (IQILS), endoscopy (JAG), primary immunodeficiency (QPIDS), pulmonary rehabilitation (PRSAS). The Accreditation Unit supports the delivery of high quality and standardised training for endoscopists and the endoscopy workforce. JAG oversees the Bowel Cancer Screener Accreditation programme and developed the National Endoscopy Database, which collects live procedure data from endoscopy units across the UK into one central database.
