Project Summary
The Prometheus project addresses the different aspects of quality: the definition of quality (Quality framework and criteria), measurement (indicators), assessment (processes, procedures for (self)-assessment) and improvement of quality of Social Services of General Interest (SSGI).
In order to meet the objectives, Prometheus will carry out the following activities:
1. CEN Workshop. The result of this workshop will be a CEN Workshop Agreement (CWA), (The CWA is Common Framework for Quality (CQF) in SSGI and core criteria for quality assurance) based on which the core criteria of the EQUASS approach will be validated and the operational quality indicators will be redefined.
2. Processes, procedures and instruments for self-evaluation, measuring quality and an implementation strategy will be tested on pilot sites in 4 European Member States in various social sectors: services for people with a disability, long term care for elderly people, child care services and services for homeless people.
3. National Information and training seminars will be organised in order to promote the CWA among the social service providers and stakeholders and to build up capacity to operate the EQUASS approach in the pilots.
4. An implementation programme will be organised in the pilot sites on how to implement the Common Quality Framework and the core criteria for Quality Assurance.
The project started in December 2008 by launching of the CEN Business plan and will last for 24 months. The first project partners’ meeting took place on 10 February 2009.
The Prometheus project is carried out with European and national partners.
