“CQL helps us look at every facet of what we do through the criteria of their Basic Assurances® – making sure there is continuous improvement,” states Angela Pasyk, Senior Manager of Center for Enriched Living.
The Basic Assurances® is a tool to evaluate human services organizations’ operations involving the health, safety, and human security of people receiving services, as well as areas such as natural supports, social networks, employment, and more.
