Abstract
The first step in pursuing recognition as a Pathway to Excellence® health care organization is conducting a self-assessment and gap analysis of the
organizational culture. Information collected is intended for the organization’s internal use. The self-assessment must be deliberate and honest if it is to serve as an accurate measure of the gap between the organization’s current and desired states. This process requires an organization to compare itself against the compulsory elements of the Pathway to Excellence® in Long Term Care program in order to assess the organization’s current state.
