NEN 8009 certification

Safe healthcare: always and for everyone

Everyone comes into contact with healthcare in their lives. So the safety of patients and clients is an issue which affects almost all of us. Setting up a safety management system (VMS) lets you show that you want to minimize the risks for clients and patients in care. A properly functioning system is aimed at preventing accidents and problems and, should they occur, limiting the damage. A VMS consists of a risk inventory, a process for reporting incidents safely, a method for incident analysis, and the implementation of improvement management. NEN 8009 (formerly NTA 8009) certification proves that your system has been tested independently. DEKRA provides an independent opinion, enabling you to carry on.
