Barriers in Implementing the Accreditation Standards for a Safe Environment in Public Hospitals of Rwanda: A Qualitative Study

Limited resources are the key contributor to non-compliance with IPC measures. Greater investment in both physical and human resources, along with continuous professional training, is essential to enhance the implementation and compliance with hospital accreditation standards. Policymakers should actively engage multinational organisations and international development partners to provide technical assistance and support capacity-building initiatives that strengthen local efforts toward effective and sustainable accreditation implementation.

Abstract

Limited resources are the key contributor to non-compliance with IPC measures. Greater investment in both physical and human resources, along with continuous professional training, is essential to enhance the implementation and compliance with hospital accreditation standards. Policymakers should actively engage multinational organisations and international development partners to provide technical assistance and support capacity-building initiatives that strengthen local efforts toward effective and sustainable accreditation implementation.
