Choose one of the following options to respond to in your initial post for this week’s discussion:
- In your current role, describe your interactions with a KSA healthcare accreditation body. What was the accreditation agency? Did the accreditation body focus on large quality improvement items, or lower priority but easier to address items (i.e., cleanliness, organization of supplies, etc.)?
- If you have had no interaction with accreditation agencies and/or do not currently work in the field, based on the course readings, do you believe accrediting bodies are important to healthcare quality improvement? Why or why not?
Embed course material concepts, principles, and theories, which require supporting citations along with at least one scholarly, peer-reviewed reference in supporting your answer. These scholarly references can be found in the Saudi Digital Library by conducting an advanced search.
