Lee Memorial Health System in Ft. Myers, Florida, pursues greatness in quality and patient safety. It embraces "skunk works” programs like Patient Navigators to create innovation.
 
And to ensure that its accreditation program contributes to and doesn‘t distract from this mission, Lee Memorial switched to DNV for its annual surveys and integration with ISO 9001.

Accreditation is a business asset, not an ‘inspection’

As DNV-accredited hospitals are discovering, accreditation does not have to be that fear-inducing inspection, it can be an engine for continuous quality improvement.

But not any accreditation program will do. Only DNV integrates ISO 9001:2008 with Medicare Conditions of Participation.
 

Primary Stroke Center Certification now available

DNV Healthcare is introducing a series of disease specific certifications to help hospitals audit their programs and promote centers of excellence.

 

Healthier healthcare with ISO quality standards

ISO is a framework perfectly suited to the complex, variable world of healthcare delivery. But when it is fully integrated with the Medicare Conditions of Participation, and battle tested by the nation’s top hospitals, you have something truly unique in the world of accreditation.
