INAB ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR ACCREDITATION FOR BLOOD CULTURE TESTING

Dear INAB client,

INAB has recently been in discussions with the Irish Society of Clinical Microbiologists Blood Culture Guideline Development Group.  We can now confirm that we will be accepting applications for accreditation for Blood Culture testing according to the Irish Guideline for the Investigation of Blood Culture Samples,  dated June 2017.     

The attached notification details the information you should present to your INAB assessment team as part of the application for accreditation for this test.  This assessment will be an on-site assessment as an extension to scope at your next surveillance visit or alternatively as an additional on-site visit,  as you require. 

Please contact your INAB officer for further information.
