This focused two-day workshop is designed to prepare laboratory professionals for successful participation in CBAHI accreditation surveys, with emphasis on the Laboratory chapter (LB) and its interconnection with Facility Management and Safety (FMS), Leadership (LD), Human Resources (HR) and other relevant Essential Safety Requirements (ESR) Standards.

This worshop follows the comprehensive 6-day (24-hour) general CBAHI accreditation program that provides an overview of all CBAHI domains, survey methodology, and accreditation decision rules. While the full workshop introduces participants to the accreditation framework and survey process, this specialized workshop provides in-depth practical guidance specific to laboratory-related standards and their implementation in daily clinical practice.

The workshop focuses on translating standards into measurable laboratory practices, ensuring compliance with Essential Safety Requirements (ESRs), strengthening the importance of evidences in terms of and not limited to committee’s Terms of references, respective departmental/committee minutes, Performance Improvement Projects and Key Performance Improvement (KPIs).

Participants will engage in interactive discussions, smart games/Quizzes to ease the grabbing of information/knowledge.
