The Healthcare Standards Institute certification body operates under a management system in compliance with ISO 17065. Therefore, we have strong measures in place to ensure the impartiality of our work. Some of these measures include signed policies and declarations, signed impartiality contracts with auditors, procedures for confidentiality and impartiality, an Impartiality Committee, and a Risk Register where risks to impartiality are identified, classified and controlled. The implementation of our control measures are verified through both internal and external audits, and discussed during a formal management review process.
