Accreditations and certifications 

QSI (Quality Standard for Imaging) is a framework developed by the Royal College of Radiologists (RCR) in the United Kingdom. Everlight's adoption of QSI demonstrates its commitment to maintaining the highest standards in radiology practice. QSI promotes better patient safety by emphasizing the implementation of robust clinical governance, quality assurance, and risk management processes. This ensures that radiologists at Everlight follow standardized protocols, leading to accurate diagnoses and reliable reporting. The focus on continuous quality improvement and performance monitoring within the QSI framework fosters a reporting environment where radiologists can reflect on their practice, identify areas for improvement, and deliver high-quality reports that contribute to better patient outcomes. 

CQC (Care Quality Commission) is the independent regulator of health and social care services in England. Everlight's registration with the CQC signifies its commitment to meeting fundamental standards of quality and safety in radiology services. By complying with CQC regulations, Everlight ensures that its facilities, equipment, and practices align with the robust safety standards. The CQC registration also fosters a better reporting environment for radiologists by emphasizing the importance of openness, transparency, and learning from incidents, leading to a culture of continuous improvement and patient-centred care. 

ISO 9001 is a globally recognized standard for quality management systems. By adhering to ISO 9001, Everlight demonstrates its commitment to providing high-quality radiology services to patients. Through the implementation of standardized processes, continuous quality improvement, and customer-centric approaches, Everlight ensures that patients receive accurate and reliable radiology reports. This promotes better patient safety through robust clinical incident management. Moreover, ISO 9001 fosters a brefined reporting environment for radiologists by establishing clear guidelines and procedures for quality assurance, ensuring consistent and precise reporting practices. 

NATA (National Association of Testing Authorities) and RANZCR (Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists) are esteemed organizations that set standards and accredit medical imaging facilities under DIAS - the Diagnostic Imaging Accreditation Scheme. Everlight's accreditation by NATA and RANZCR reflects its compliance with rigorous quality and safety criteria undergoing regular audit against the RANZCR Standards. By meeting these standards, Everlight ensures that its radiologists adhere to best practices in diagnostic imaging, resulting in the highest standards of patient safety. The accreditation also enhances the reporting environment for radiologists by fostering a culture of continuous learning, peer review, and adherence to professional guidelines. This creates an environment where radiologists can collaborate, share knowledge, and enhance their reporting skills, ultimately benefiting patient care. 

ISO 27001 is an internationally recognized standard that focuses on information security management systems. At Everlight, adherence to ISO 27001 ensures that patient data and confidential information are handled securely and protected from unauthorized access or breaches. By implementing robust security measures, such as access controls, encryption, and regular security audits, Everlight ensures the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of patient information. This promotes better patient safety by safeguarding sensitive data from cyber threats and potential data breaches. Additionally, ISO 27001 cultivates a better reporting environment for radiologists as they can trust that their patients' information is secure and confidential, enabling them to focus on delivering accurate diagnoses and effective treatment plans.
