Tertiary care aims to achieve the highest level of functioning possible while managing chronic illness. For example, a patient who falls and fractures their hip will need secondary care...

Background:

Hospital accreditation faces challenges with uniform standards for diverse hospital types.
There is a need for specific accreditation modules tailored to hospital size and activity type.

Purpose of the Study:

To identify distinct accreditation modules for small hospitals and special hospitals.
To inform the development of appropriate accreditation standards for varied healthcare facilities.

Main Methods:

A scoping review was conducted from March to May 2023.
The Arsky and O'Malley six-step protocol and PRISMA guidelines were utilized.
Framework analysis was employed for data synthesis.

Main Results:

14 articles were reviewed, with 64% from peer-reviewed journals and 36% from national accreditation standards.
Key modules for small hospitals include Management Responsibilities, Patient Care, Medication Management, Patient Safety, Infection Control, Quality Improvement, Patient Rights, Blood Products, and Consumer Partnerships.
Key modules for special hospitals encompass Governing Body, Clinical Management, Health Prevention, Care and Treatment, Diagnostic Services, Patient Rights, and Quality Improvement.

Conclusions:

Tailored accreditation modules for small and special hospitals can enhance healthcare quality and safety.
Implementing specific standards can lead to improved patient services and satisfaction.
