Surveyors are a valued and essential part of the DAP accreditation process. DAP Surveyors bring a wealth of experience, knowledge and expertise to the Accreditation process. Surveyors are involved during the on-site assessment of health facilities throughout British Columbia. 

A DAP Surveyor is a health professional, trained and skilled in surveying techniques who is able to gather the relevant information to verify the health care organisation’s achievement in the standards being assessed.

During the on-site survey, a team of peers conducts an on-site assessment of the facility/service to evaluate the diagnostic service’s level of actual performance to achieving the accreditation standards. The surveyors play a consultative role and provide education for the organisation to understand how to progress on their quality journey while ensuring they achieve the standards to the required level.
