• Explain the role of quality oversight in health care organizations and elaborate on how non-clinical personnel contribute to the process.
• Identify and describe three stakeholder organizations or agencies that contribute to quality oversight within health care organizations in a substantial way. Include at least one government and one non-government organization/agency that focuses on quality of care within the health care field.
• Answer the following questions for each organization/agency:
  a. How does this organization/agency contribute to quality of care and patient safety?
  b. What specific types of oversight does this organization/agency provide?
  c. What are some of the repercussions that a health care organization could face for violating the standards of the organization/agency?
• Compare and contrast the three organizations/agencies.
• Who are some of the other stakeholders involved in promoting quality of care in health care and what role do they play? 
• Given the vast amount of mandatory regulations imposed upon the health care industry, explain why a health care organization might subject itself to participate in voluntary accreditation activities.
