Why a Cornerstone Accredited Practice Matters

Cornerstone Accreditation is a quality assurance program run by the Royal New Zealand College of General Practitioners (RNZCGP).

It recognises general practices that meet high standards in patient care, safety, cultural competency, and business systems. Accredited practices are regularly assessed to ensure they deliver safe, consistent, and equitable healthcare — showing a strong commitment to continuous improvement and excellence in general practice.

Cornerstone Accreditation helps GP clinics deliver safer, high-quality care while promoting cultural competency and equity. It builds patient trust, supports team development, and ensures practices are future-ready.
