Abstract

The management of the documentation is one of the key points regarding the efficacy and the performance of the quality management of health centres. It offers to all professionals the possibility to be informed on the procedures in use, leading to a pool of documents for improvement of organisations and for securing the critical steps of the patient management. In this paper, we will describe the optimal organisation of the documentation according to Haute autorité de santé (HAS) and ISO recommendations, then we will discuss in concrete terms the potential methods usable for the production of a tool well adapted to our routine practice, in order to achieve the objectives for security.
