Audits and action plans

The annual self-audit and planning process is central to the Global Network concept.

  • It provides a robust process for members to assess their performance against the Global Standards and plan for ongoing systematic improvement.
  • It also provides a means of benchmarking with other health services.
     
So how does it work?
  • New members complete an initial self-audit as part of the application process.  Members submit their self-audit at least every two years to maintain their network membership.
  • For at least every two years, members are encouraged to repeat the self-audit and to use it to develop their annual implementation strategy.  The audit template includes a reflection and planning section to facilitate this.
  • The Coordinating Centre reviews each audit and provides feedback. 
  • Members are offered the opportunity to present their self-audit at a network meeting in order to gain input from their peers and raise issues that they would like assistance with.  
  • The Coordinating Centre collates the two yearly audit data and shares with network members to facilitate benchmarking.  
  • Members may choose to have their self-audit independently validated through the VNSHS Regional Validation Program.
