I had immense pleasure to work with Quality Accreditation Institute for our Lab Accreditation as per ISO 15189:2012. Our Labs Narayana Nethralaya Institute of Molecular Diagnostics & Laboratory services at Rajaji Nagar and Narayana Nethralaya Institute of Molecular Diagnostics & Laboratory Services at Narayana Health city, Bommasandra got Accreditated by Quality & Accreditation Institute (QAI) as per ISO 15189:2012. They guided in the preparation of Quality Manual, sops and maintaining the documents as per the standards. They have assessed our labs in timely manner and raised the Nonconformities where ever the deficiencies are observed. We have closed the Nonconformities and sent to the QAI. After fulfilling the requirements, they have granted accreditation to our Labs. They work with time scheduled process and the process is very fast. I would like to thank Quality Accreditation Institute for quick process and guidance.

It gives me immense pleasure to share that QAI is one of very few organisation which hold quality on its top agenda. Under able leadership of Dr B.K Rana, QAI is one of the best organisation which provides great environment for training and accreditation. We Max@Home recently gone under accreditation process for home healthcare.

I wish all the best to Dr B.K Rana and QAI to reach new heights.

“QAI’s initiative to introduce international standards for Home Healthcare in India is appreciable. Accreditation services for Home Healthcare Facilities from QAI can yield positive outcome to Home Healthcare Organizations that are keen on delivering quality service and establish standards in the Home Healthcare Sector. For Guardian Angel Homecare, the accreditation process was an enriching one. It gave us an opportunity to review and fine-tune our existing processes and adopt new ones to address deficiencies and non-conformities. Above all, it helped to orient the entire organization to have a greater focus on quality. Dr. Rana and his team from QAI were there to provide guidance and support throughout the assessment period. Wish QAI and its endeavours all success!! “
