ECTAS Partner Organisations
To ensure that ECTAS takes a
multidisciplinary approach to accrediting ECT Clinics, we are
delighted to have formal representatives from the following
organisations sitting on our accreditation committee and standards
development group:
How our scheme informs the CQC
CQC recognises the potential value of clinical service
accreditation and peer-review schemes as information sources to
support its inspections. Such schemes have the potential to
provide useful intelligence and provide independent assurance that
accredited services meet standards.
The Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership
(HQIP) has developed, in association with the cross‐college
clinical services accreditation stakeholder’s advisory group, a set
of criteria to help CQC determine schemes that can provide robust
and reliable information for consideration ahead of and during
inspections.
ECTAS has applied and been approved as an
official information source.
Any publically available information (for
example accreditation status) will be taken into account in the CQC
inspection methodology.
