Accreditations We Support

ISO 15189 is the international standard specifying requirements for quality and competence in medical laboratories. The 2022 edition introduced significant updates, including stronger patient-focused requirements and a revised quality management framework. It is the most widely recognised medical laboratory accreditation standard in the world.

For African laboratories, ISO 15189 accreditation opens doors to international partnerships, government procurement, and patient confidence. It demonstrates that your laboratory produces accurate, reliable results consistently, regardless of volume or complexity.

CAP accreditation is one of the most globally recognised marks of laboratory excellence. Built on a comprehensive checklist system developed by pathologists and laboratory scientists, it demonstrates that your laboratory meets the highest standards of accuracy, reliability and patient safety.

CAP-accredited laboratories are recognised by international health organisations, research institutions and insurance bodies worldwide. For African laboratories with regional or international ambitions, CAP accreditation is a powerful signal of quality and technical competence.

The Joint Commission and Joint Commission International set rigorous standards for laboratory services within hospital and clinical settings. TJC accreditation covers pre-analytical, analytical and post-analytical processes, with a strong emphasis on patient safety and continuous quality improvement.

Hospital laboratories seeking TJC or JCI accreditation must demonstrate integrated quality systems that align with the wider hospital framework. Our consultants understand both the laboratory and the clinical context, so your lab contributes to and benefits from the full institutional accreditation.
