Lanka Hospitals gets ISO certification

Lanka Hospitals completed the assurance process successfully to receive the ISO 22000:2005 Food Safety Management System Certification.

“Though widely applied by food centric industries and the hospitality industry, we recognised the need to introduce ISO 22000:2005 to our food chain because we consider food and food safety as critical to our overall service delivery”, said CEO of Lanka Hospitals, Lakith Peiris.

“Our catering resource is a major component of the main service delivery though not a core function. Through the introduction of a Food Safety Management System that fully complies with the requirements of ISO 22000:2005, we have effectively enhanced the quality and safety of food for patients at the time of consumption”, he said.
