What our members have said about us:

• "PLAN has helped my team to focus on what is important to achieve in a high quality service.  We have made significant changes to our working as a result.  PLAN has also raised the profile of our service amongst our managers and within the hospital." Dr Jim Bolton, St Helier Hospital  

• “I feel in our service we do great work but it was really re-affirming to have that feedback from PLAN as outsiders looking in”. Dr Amrit Sachar, Hammersmith Hospital

• "PLAN has helped the team to share information and solutions with other teams." Dr Nora Turjanski, Royal Free Hospital

Case studies

Three teams who have already gone through the accreditation process have described what it was like for them

Signing up: how much does it cost?

The accreditation programme is funded on a subscription basis.  The CCQI has received some funding from The Health Foundation to help set up the programme, enabling us to provide it at a reduced rate of £2,900.  This includes access to all our materials and events.  We offer large discounts for services committing to 3 or more year's membership.  Please see our joining form below for more details.

Getting started

Cycle 1 members (2009/2010) have recently completed their programme of work and received accreditation decisions.  Cycle 2 (2010/2011) began in January 2011.

New members are welcome to sign up at any time to begin activity in the autumn 2011.  Any services interested in joining this programme of work should contact us to request a joining form.
