The Health Quality Service is the longest established health accreditation service in the UK and the rest of Europe. We work with UK and international healthcare organisations to improve the quality of patient care through consultancy services and the development of health care standards and assessment processes.

We can adapt our services to meet your specific needs
The scope and experience of HQS means we can help you meet all your quality goals. We have an unrivalled capacity to tailor our programmes and services to meet the individual needs and priorities of your organisation.

HQS is the route to all your quality solutions - not another problem
We can help you navigate your way through the burgeoning and often confusing range of healthcare quality and regulatory frameworks. HQS continuously reviews healthcare requirements and will give you an excellent foundation for quality improvement.

Being more than ready for the inspectors
HQS is also the best preparation for the mandatory inspections that are now so crucial to the future of any healthcare organisation. HQS will enable your organisation to be in a state of readiness for inspection both in practical terms and also by preparing your staff to face what might otherwise be a daunting experience.

HQS is developmental in its approach.
The heart of our approach is quality improvement focusing on four key areas: people, process, environment and results. Click on your area of interest to see examples of benefits identified by our clients:

HQS is comprehensive
Our consultancy services and quality audit programmes cover a wide range of organisations in the public, independent and voluntary healthcare sectors. Our clients include acute hospitals, community health, mental health, learning disabilities, palliative care, residential and nursing homes, general practitioner and primary health care services.

In addition to HQS accreditation, clients can opt for an ISO audit and by working with the same set of standards gain dual HQS Accreditation/ISO Certification.

HQS is accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS).
