Standards built on international consensus
ASF standards are developed from internationally recognised principles of healthcare quality and patient safety — following ISQua’s principles for standards development and external evaluation, aligned with World Health Organization guidance on quality of care and patient safety, and informed by the frameworks of the world’s leading accreditation systems — then calibrated for applicability in transitioning health systems.
Standard domains
- Patient safety goals and risk management
- Access, assessment and continuity of care
- Medication management and safe surgery
- Infection prevention and control
- Patient rights, experience and education
- Workforce qualifications, training and wellbeing
- Governance, leadership and ethics
- Facility management, safety and emergency preparedness
- Quality improvement and data-driven management
Facilities preparing for accreditation receive the full standard sets, self-assessment instruments and interpretation guides as part of their programme.
