QUALITY AND EXCELLENCE PROGRAMS

The GCEA’s evaluation program offers a unique methodology starting with pre-survey review that focuses on the clinical engineering program and continues with expert assessment on-site. The methodology is also unique because all the pre- and on-site assessments are performed by experienced and hands-on Clinical Engineers.
GCEA accreditation offers much more than seals to display. With its start at Canadian hospitals, the CEPA program includes tools to guide you through the accreditation process, affordable programs, and more. GCEA’s CEPA program delivers a return on your investment through improved outcomes, business metrics, efficient program administration, and patient experience.
