The Royal College of Radiologists ad The College of Radiographers have developed the Imagig Services Accreditatio Scheme (ISAS) to help diagostic imagig services esure that their patiets cosistetly receive high quality services delivered by competet staff workig i safe eviromets. The Uited Kigdom Accreditatio Service (UKAS) delivers ad maages ISAS o behalf of the Colleges ad carries out assessmets for accreditatio agaist all elemets of the ISAS Stadard. UKAS accreditatio gives formal thirdparty recogitio that a imagig services provider has demostrated their orgaisatioal competece to deliver high quality imagig services. Further iformatio about the accreditatio process ca be foud throughout this brochure ad olie Services ca choose either a direct or a staged pathway to accreditatio. The staged pathway recogises the attaimet of key milestoes i the assessmet process. Accredited imagig services give the people usig them, the patiets ad their relatives, cofidece i their diagosis. The accreditatio assessmet team is made up of traied assessors, exteral peers ad a lay perso led by a UKAS Assessmet Maager, who together take a holistic approach to determie a service s overall ability to cosistetly deliver the best possible service to its patiets ad users....[isas] A established service accreditatio programme offers a clear way to demostrate a provider s ability to deliver specific services of assured quality.

3 Why should imagig services gai accreditatio? Accreditatio improves cliical goverace stadards, raises the level of competecy ad ehaces the credibility of the service amogst patiets ad assures those who fud the services. High-quality care is the corerstoe for good medical practice ad both NHS ad idepedet providers are seekig recogitio of their stadards. Imagig services ca expect accreditatio to: Support a focus o patiet safety ad care Raise local stadards ad support cotiuous improvemet Act as leverage for chage, staff motivatio ad sharig good practice Provide third party cofirmatio of good practice Ehace efficiecy ad value for moey Icrease cofidece i the service UKAS accreditatio providig valuable iformatio to regulators CQC recogises the potetial value of cliical service accreditatio ad peer-review schemes as iformatio sources to support its ispectios. Such schemes have the potetial to provide useful itelligece ad provide idepedet assurace that accredited services meet stadards. ISAS is recogised by CQC ad has bee approved for use withi CQC hospital ispectio methodology. With ISAS accreditatio patiets will ot oly have a better ad safer experiece of our service but will also have assurace that this will be so.

4 ISAS your key to deliverig quality imagig services The ISAS stadard is clearly laid out ad easy to uderstad. It covers key aspects of a imagig service s performace across four quality domais: Cliical to promote the service s role i rapid ad accurate diagosis ad treatmet Patiet experiece to esure that service delivery is patiet-focused ad respectful of the idividual ad their specific requiremets Facilities, resources ad workforce to esure that adequate resources are provided ad used effectively to offer a safe, efficiet, comfortable ad accessible service Safety to esure that services provide the highest level of safety for patiets, staff ad others who come ito cotact with the service. Spread across these four quality domais are 33 key stadard statemets each of which addresses a key aspect ecessary for the provisio of a idepedetly recogised, high quality diagostic imagig service. Each stadard statemet is accompaied by detailed professioal guidace o what is required i order to achieve it. As expected i healthcare, the accreditatio process is rigorous. However, all services that have achieved ISAS accreditatio believe that it is worthwhile ad that it has stregtheed their service. Now we have bee accredited agaist the ISAS Stadard, we have a high degree of cofidece that we will comply with all other regulatory requiremets, icludig the Care Quality Commissio s registratio requiremets.
