By participating in the Accreditation program, the BC Cancer Agency is able to showcase our population-based cancer control program and demonstrate our commitment to continuous quality improvement, patient safety, improved efficiency and accountability. Accreditation improves communication and collaboration – both internally as well as with external stakeholders and partners.

Accreditation Canada was on site surveying all of the BC Cancer Agency’s care and research centres on May 31 to June 4, 2009.
