What is the ECT Accreditation Service?
The ECT
Accreditation Service (ECTAS) works with ECT services to
assure and improve the quality of the administration of
electroconvulsive therapy. We engage staff in a comprehensive
process of review, through which good practice and high quality
care are recognised and services are supported to identify and
address areas for improvement.
Accreditation
assures staff, service users and referrers, commissioners and
regulators of the quality of the service being
provided.
Over
78% of ECT clinics in England and Wales participate in our
accreditation programme. We also have members in Northern Ireland
and the Republic of Ireland.
ECTAS is an
initiative of the College Centre for Quality
Improvement.
