Summary of SLIPTA Performance: March 23, 2018 – April 26, 2018

Abstract

This dataset summarizes the performance of health facility laboratories evaluated using the SLIPTA (Stepwise Laboratory Quality Improvement Process Towards Accreditation) checklist between March 23 and April 26, 2018. The SLIPTA framework assesses laboratories against international quality standards across key components of Laboratory Quality Management Systems (LQMS), including document control, personnel competency, equipment management, internal audits, and continual improvement.

The dataset provides detailed scoring results and star ratings for each participating laboratory, offering insights into their strengths, weaknesses, and overall readiness for accreditation. It serves as a baseline for monitoring progress in quality improvement initiatives and supports targeted capacity-building efforts across the regional laboratory network.
