Abstract
Objective: In our study, we attempted to determine the accreditation process experience of hospital senior managers accredited by the Turkish Health Care Quality and Accreditation Institute (TUSKA). Along with the institutions' accomplishments through the accreditation program, the major challenges they faced during the accreditation process were revealed.
Methods: One of the qualitative research designs used was interpretive phenomenological analysis, which was carried out through semi-structured interviews with hospital senior managers.
Results: In the study conducted with eight participants, 55 sub-themes emerged under 12 main themes. The participants expressed their opinions on a wide range of topics, from the achievements related to the accreditation process to the difficulties they encountered, from their strengths to the dissemination of accreditation throughout the country.
Conclusion: It has been understood that the national hospital accreditations carried out in our country provide important gains to the institutions in management and clinical activities, while the expectations on incentives and other similar issues have not yet been met.
