HealthCERT is responsible for ensuring hospitals, rest homes, residential disability care facilities and fertility providers provide safe and reasonable levels of service for consumers, as required under the Health and Disability Service (Safety) Act 2001.
HealthCERT’s role is to administer and enforce the legislation, issue certificates, review audit reports and manage legal issues.
The YourHealth section for consumers provides access to a list of certified providers of hospital and aged residential care services. There are also summaries of certification audits and spot audits for aged residential care providers. More summaries will be added as they become available.
