Welcome to the official website of the Health Care Accreditation Council. Within these pages you will learn about our vision, mission, values, services, programs and latest news.
In 2007, along with some remarkable colleagues and partners, I had the vision of developing a system capable of improving and raising the bar of quality and patient safety in, and for, Jordan. I am proud to say I have been part of this important movement and the successes we have achieved together thus far.
Today, HCAC boasts more than 140 surveyors, all trained to support healthcare institutions assess their quality systems and patient safety efforts. Over 252 healthcare institutions have been accredited. 2023 will see us running our 10th round of the National Quality and Safety Goals and our 9th Change Day Campaign, having just completed our 6th conference. We have more than 800 graduates of our courses supporting improved skills and capacity building for all health workers with more than 12 sets of standards for all types of healthcare institutions. And we did not stop there; we have successfully embraced our communities into this movement of quality and safety for better care.
We are the First institution in the Eastern Mediterranean region to achieve and maintain all of International Society for Quality in Healthcare (ISQua www.isqua.org) accreditations and we have opened our wings to spread our expertise to many neighboring countries.
The vision has become a reality with the enormous efforts of the HCAC team, a small group of dedicated professionals with immense capabilities and enthusiastic passion towards the cause. I invite you to reach out to them and partner with them for effective and improved care.
Now more than ever, we are committed to providing services that contribute to improving quality and public safety in Jordan and the region through a number of programs, processes and procedures in place to support our goals and improve performance.
Elsewhere on our website you will see tools and opportunities to become part of the change and to help drive it with us. You will also find research findings by reputable organizations showing the impact of HCAC on improving many aspects of the healthcare system in Jordan.
Our mission continues to compel us to Lead comprehensive quality and safety improvements of the healthcare environment, services, governance and worker performance through providing customized, high-end products with a commitment to sustainable practices and global standards
Our Board of Directors brings together individuals from public, private and nonprofit sectors with a diverse set of skills and expertise to support achieving our mission and vision. At each Board meeting, time is always allocated to reviewing performance, discussing achievements as well as opportunities for further improvement, and to establishing future goals and objectives.
