Many organisations report a culture of pride in the quality of service and a greater sense of ownership, with employees feeling they can influence their role in the organisation.
As a leading health and social care assurance and accreditation service, CHKS has unrivalled experience in developing and applying quality standards both in the UK and internationally to improve patient care, while addressing key challenges such as risk management and clinical effectiveness.
CHKS accreditation provides credible and independent recognition of your commitment to quality improvement for your patients, Board and external regulators. Our accreditation programmes are tailored to all aspects of healthcare provision from acute hospitals and care homes to specific services such as radiotherapy and maternity.
Accreditation team and surveyors
The CHKS accreditation team is supported by a network of healthcare and quality experts. This group support CHKS either as surveyors for client surveys or as members on our Awards Panel or Accreditation Council.

CHKS activity does not constitute an accreditation within the meaning of Article 2 (10) of Regulation (EC) NO. 765 / 2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 July 2008 (as incorporated into and amended by GB law).

Above all it demonstrates that we are a quality-focussed organisation and that we adhere to our values. We would definitely go for accreditation again and I’m convinced that it has been pivotal in keeping our company on track. Although there was a lot of work involved, there are absolutely no regrets.
