The National Regulations require approved services to have a Quality Improvement Plan (QIP). The aim of this plan is to help providers self-assess their performance in delivering quality education and care and to plan future improvements. The QIP also helps the regulatory authorities with their assessment of the service. Our Quality Improvement Plan is available on request.
