This collaborative offers coaching and guidance for eye hospitals to implement NABH Entry Level Standards.
Overview:
This year-long collaborative offered by LAICO (A unit of Aravind Eye care System) is designed to prepare eye hospitals for NABH Entry Level Certification. Through this collaborative, LAICO guides the partner eye hospitals for implementing 167 objective elements required for NABH Entry Level Certification. Aravind’s experience in obtaining certification for 10 of its hospitals (5 tertiary and 5 secondary)makes the organization resourceful in facilitating this process and in guiding the partner hospitals enrolled in this collaborative.
This collaborative is for you if you are an eye hospital:
- Having a strong desire to adopt quality standards and willingness to apply and acquire NABH Entry Level Certification towards ensuring patient centred care and patient safety
- That has already initiated the preparations to apply for Entry Level Certification
