The Quality Unit, established within IIS-FJD in 2025, works in close interaction and collaboration with the Quality Department (Section 8.6) of Fundación Jiménez Díaz University Hospital (HUFJD), to ensure effective alignment of quality processes and standards.

The unit's main objective is to ensure the proper implementation, maintenance and continuous improvement of the Institute's quality management system to guarantee compliance with internal and external quality standards and requirements.

Its activities are focused on strengthening process efficiency, which promotes a culture of continuous improvement, and contributing to excellence in research management. To achieve this, the unit develops tools and procedures that enable organisational performance assessment, identification of improvement opportunities and optimisation of the operation of the Institute's different units.

The quality unit also plays a key role in the preparation and monitoring of certification and audit processes, acting as a coordinating body among the Institute's different areas to ensure compliance with regulatory and quality requirements.
