Quality Assurance Measures

Quality Assurance Measures (QAM)

Tamir recently implemented Quality Assurance Measures (QAM) as part of Regulation 299/10, required by the Ministry of Community and Social Services (MCSS).

QAM came into effect this past January. These regulations are under the Services and Supports to Promote the Social Inclusion of Persons with Developmental Disabilities Act. The regulations set quality assurance measures for developmental services agencies across the province.

The new Quality Assurance Measures are designed to provide a consistent approach, a higher standard for health and safety, and to reduce risk within our services. While Tamir has its own policies and procedures in place to ensure quality of service, we welcome these new measures.

For more information, please read the Ministry Guide to the Regulation on QAM.

Should you have any questions related to the new legislation, please do not hesitate to contact Tracey Moore at 613-725-3519 x 104 or email her.
