COHSASA goes beyond accreditation, offering quality improvement training, developing standards for governments and corporates, and helping monitor adverse events to enhance patient safety. We provide expert advisory and training services to elevate healthcare standards across Africa, ensuring institutions meet international accreditation benchmarks for safer, high-quality care.
Why it matters: Strengthening staff and systems is key to sustainable healthcare. With COHSASA’s guidance, your team gains the skills to implement effective quality improvement, driving excellence in patient care and system resilience.
COHSASA can provide standalone training on quality improvement methods or deliver this as part of preparation for the accreditation programme. Empowering healthcare providers with the knowledge, tools, and support they need to deliver exceptional care is essential. By providing comprehensive training and resources, we enable healthcare workers to thrive and contribute to the movement for better healthcare.
Thereafter weekly coaching sessions are held with the team. These sessions focus on implementing quality improvement, developing policies, devising risk management systems and patient safety projects. The sessions are practical and interactive and address the specific needs of the participants in your facility to ensure that we share our knowledge and help build capacity.
At the end of the programme, participants can evaluate themselves using COHSASA standards, apply the learning from the training and embed quality improvement (QI) as a daily activity.
The individual elements of the programme can be presented as standalone modules, including quality improvement methods, risk management, incident reporting and management and policy and procedure development.
A detailed curriculum is available.
