Abstract: The accreditation of hospitals in Morocco is an essential process aimed at ensuring the quality of healthcare provided by healthcare facilities. This process is implemented by the Ministry of Health and Social Protection, in collaboration with the World Health Organization. The primary objective of accreditation is to ensure the quality and safety of healthcare provided to patients. This includes the verification of standards and care protocols, the qualification of medical and paramedical staff, as well as compliance with health standards. Accreditation of healthcare facilities offers several advantages, including the improvement of the quality of care, the promotion of transparency, increased patient confidence, and the possibility of national and international recognition. The accreditation of health establishments is a major prospect for Morocco. This project is part of the development of the health system reform project and also medical coverage. The objectives of accreditation of hospital establishments are essentially aimed at meeting user expectations and improving the quality and safety of care. This opportunity constitutes a solid foundation and lever to ensure the organization of processes and the application of procedures to facilitate administrative and technical activities within an organization and evaluate the performance of results through the development of dashboards and quality indicators.
