This 3-hour webinar focuses on the NSQHS Standards Short Notice Assessment which has a maximum notice (in most settings) of 24 business hours.

On 1 July 2023 accreditation assessment moved from an announced assessment to a short notice methodology, by the Australian Commission on Quality and Safety in health care settings. 

The concept behind this methodology is Health Service organisations will be assessed during business as usual as opposed to a scheduled prepared event.
