[Dysphagia] Dysphagia Quality Assurance for Accreditation

Hi folks,  (especially Canadian members)
We are currently reassessing our quality assurance measures for
Accreditation purposes. In recent years, the quality assurance program has
been program specific (ie Rehab) vs discipline specific (ie SLP). I am now
being asked to return to discipline specific quality measures for our high
risk/high volume areas which is definitely inpatient dysphagia services so
wonder what other folks are using.
All suggestions/comments/experiences welcome with thanks!
