The
Health Check
The
Health check is the means used to identify your strengths and weaknesses
and takes the form of a series of questions designed to look at
how effectively you operate
A score is generated to see whether you have reached that level in the pyramid.
An improvement plan is agreed to identify what you should do,
what you are recommended to do, and other areas that you
may feel you need to improve.
Assessors
and Facilitators
In addition to a knowledgeable person within your group who will represent
your organisation, there is..
An Assessor who
will mark each section of the Health Check, and
A Facilitator who
help you and the Assessor to interpret the Health Check questions
in light of the way your group functions.
Accreditation
Once
you have completed your Health Check and done any necessary follow
up work to get the best score possible it is sent to the Accreditation
Unit. If you have achieved a Green score, you will receive your
Accreditation Certificate which is valid for three years. If you
receive an Amber score then it will be valid for one year.
Follow
Up and Continuous Improvement
But it doesn’t stop there: You are encouraged to use the follow up process
to check that your ways of working follow good practice, but to continue to
improve your group’s practices.
