One quality system, not another layer of paperwork.
DHD can help integrate ISO 9001 with sector-specific frameworks such as HSQF, NDIS Practice Standards, aged care requirements and healthcare accreditation.
The aim is one coherent management system with clear scheme-specific evidence, rather than parallel systems that duplicate work.


People often search for “ISO 9001 accreditation”. The technically correct term for an organisation is ISO 9001 certification.
An independent certification body audits the organisation and may itself be accredited by an accreditation body.
CERTIFICATION, NOT ORGANISATIONAL ACCREDITATION.

DHD also provides sector-specific compliance and accreditation support for hospitals, aged care organisations and Queensland human services providers.
