Quality and Accreditation Institute was set up to create an ecosystem of education, training, quality improvement and accreditation. We believe that this organisation would provide a platform to stakeholders including professionals and organisations, associated with quality in any way, to share their wisdom and knowledge in order to make its Vision realised.
There may be different tools/ methods/ mechanisms to achieve Quality. Accreditation is one such tool. In Healthcare, accreditation is now available almost for all types of organisations ranging from a medical laboratory to a super speciality hospital.
QAI's CLA has been established with the objective of providing Government, Industry Associations and Industry in general with a scheme of accreditation of laboratories including medical, testing and calibration laboratories. The laboratory accreditation services to testing and calibration laboratories are provided in accordance with ISO/ IEC 17025 'General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration Laboratories' and ISO 15189 'Medical laboratories -- Requirements for Quality and
QAI’s CAHSC set up to operate accreditation/ certification programs in health and social care sector. Primarily, it is targeted to launch those programs which do not exist and there is a need felt by stakeholders to start such programs.

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.
"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!! "
