title: Professional organisations of allied health-disciplines assessments: a review of four disciplines.
abstract: Quality assurance developments in The Netherlands among physical therapists, speech-therapists, dietitians and occupational therapists in The Netherlands are discussed emphasising profession-dependent characteristics. A general introduction will precede a short outline of "the state of the art" of each discipline. Some experiences with the implementation of peer review among speech-therapists and a proposal to integrate quality of care concepts in educational curricula, will conclude this review.
