Information for patients
What does PRSAS accreditation mean for patients?
PRSAS accreditation shows that a pulmonary rehabilitation service meets recognised quality standards. This means you can feel more confident that you will receive safe, high-quality care, wherever you access a PRSAS-accredited service in the country.
For the service, accreditation is a mark of achievement that demonstrates its commitment to providing excellent care. It can also help services secure funding and support future improvements, helping them grow and develop for patients.

How can I get involved?
Most services will have a patient group which provide opportunities for patients to get involved in the development of the service. Your service may also have volunteering opportunities. Furthermore, you may want to look into becoming involved with a patient charity; further information is available on the Asthma + Lung UK website.
