The AfPP’s Audit and Accreditation reviews all aspects of perioperative practice, with a focus on safety-critical processes and cultural behaviours. Circle Health Group has achieved a major milestone, with Accreditation across 49 hospitals. This article provides an insight into the healthcare provider’s journey.
Across the UK, the Association for Perioperative Practice (AfPP) is shaping the future of patient safety in the operating theatre. Through its Audit and Accreditation, AfPP provides hospitals with an independent, structured framework to benchmark their performance, strengthen their governance, and embed a culture of continuous improvement.
This is not about passing a test. It is about reassurance, collaboration, and culture change. AfPP Audit and Accreditation gives perioperative teams the tools and external validation they need to re-assure that their theatres meet the very highest standards of patient safety and care.
This year marks a major milestone for AfPP Audit and Accreditation. In collaboration with Circle Health Group, the UK's largest independent hospital provider, AfPP has accredited 49 of Circle's 54 hospitals and more than 155 operating theatres.
