QIP Accredited
QIP stands for Quality Innovation Performance and is based on integrating National Safety and Quality Health Service Standards into a dental practice’s existing quality standards systems, and harmonising regulations passed by both State and Federal governments.
What is accreditation?
Accreditation is independent recognition that an organisation, service, program or activity meets the requirements of defined criteria or standards. Accreditation provides quality and performance assurance for owners, managers, staff, funding bodies and consumers. Accreditation is a tool to measure and improve performance and outcomes.
What does this mean for me?
A dental practice that has achieved this accreditation has demonstrated their commitment to providing excellent dental care. QIP practices are also committed to continuously improving these standards. Accreditation is voluntary but when you choose an accredited practice you can be sure you are receiving high quality dental care from a dental practice which adheres to strict protocols designed to ensure patient safety.
