The sessions focused on:

* Infection Prevention & Control

* Quality Improvement Processes
* NQAS standards, measurable elements, and implementation requirements
The team also discussed facility-specific gaps and challenges, addressed queries raised by healthcare staff, and provided practical guidance to strengthen quality systems and support effective implementation of NQAS standards.
Sustaining Quality Through Continuous Supportive Supervision
Quality improvement is not a one-time exercise—it is a continuous process of assessment, learning, improvement, and monitoring. Regular supportive supervision is essential to sustain the quality practices established through training and assessments, identify gaps at an early stage, strengthen staff capacity, and ensure that quality standards are consistently translated into practice.
Through the ASSIST Project, continuous mentoring and supportive supervision aim to support facilities in moving beyond checklist-based compliance towards sustained, measurable, and patient-centred quality improvement.
Appreciation to the Quality Coordinators and healthcare teams at all three facilities for their active participation and continued commitment towards strengthening the quality of healthcare services.
