Accreditation

Accreditation process

The office of the Chief Executive Officer/Director of Nursing is the primary point of contact for any queries regarding accreditation of medical practitioners and psychiatrists. Applications for credentialing to provide services at St John of God Pinelodge Clinic should be directed to the Chief Executive Officer/Director of Nursing.

The hospital's Medical Advisory Committee and Chief Executive Officer/Director of Nursing consider all applications. Interim approval may be granted until the next meeting of the Credentials Committee. The applicant will be notified of interim approval and sent a copy of the hospital by-laws. If their application is unsuccessful they may be advised to resubmit their application.

Once an application is formally considered and approved by the Credentials Committee, the applicant is notified of the terms and conditions of credentialing.
