The field of healthcare and social work constitutes a major challenge for society. The need to provide all citizens with quality, reliable and lasting health and social care, while keeping costs under control, grows daily.
Accreditation is an essential tool for generating confidence in health and social care service providers. It helps ensure, directly or indirectly, that the service providers comply with a rigorous process and deliver quality services with competent teams.
Improving the health of the most vulnerable people requires the implementation of social action services and appropriate and effective prescription tools.
In France, the Consumer Code makes the accreditation of organizations carrying out certification of products or services obligatory in order to have guarantees of their impartiality and competence. This measure provides confidence in the services provided by certified companies or organizations to the most vulnerable, whether they are the elderly, the sick, people with disabilities or dependency, people with reduced mobility or young children.
