Healthcare quality in an international setting.

This report discusses the process used by the Healthcare Quality Certification Board to internationalize its certification program. With some modifications this methodology can be utilized to define the role of any healthcare professional and to legitimize, create or restructure a certification program that assesses competency in a particular healthcare field. This process and the importance of quality management are related to today's cataclysmic healthcare environment which challenges efforts to confront cost and access.

Job analysis 1992: infection control practitioner.

The Certification Board of Infection Control directed its Research Subcommittee to compose a Job Analysis Committee in 1991. This 9-member Job Analysis Committee, in collaboration with Applied Measurement Professionals, Inc., conducted a job analysis of ICPs during 1992. The reassessment of the previous Certification Board of Infection Control task analysis, formation of a job-analysis survey tool, and the actual job-analysis process and its results are described in this article. The previous and newly revised test specification outlines are compared. The national Certification Examination for Infection Control for November 1993 will reflect the efforts of this endeavor.
