The steps

  1. Download the Quality Indicators Workbook
  2. Map your evidence per indicator
  3. Score yourself honestly (Met / Partially Met / Not Met)
  4. Identify gaps and assign owners with deadlines
  5. Run a document review session with your team
  6. Practice staff interview questions
  7. Walk through your site (if Module 4 applies)
  8. Compile a findings report
  9. Re-test fixed items 14 days before real audit

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Scoring yourself as "Met" when evidence is incomplete
  • Skipping the staff interview practice
  • Treating mock audit as optional
