Background and Objectives: Hospital accreditation is used as a tool to improve the quality and safety of patients. The effectiveness of accreditation depends on the content of the standards.

Data were analyzed by descriptive and inferential statistical methods.
Results: The level of agreement of the executive management team of the hospitals with the sections of content, implementation, and the effects of accreditation was in the medium range and in terms of methodology and expectation of the accreditation was in the agreement range. The highest agreement was reported with the expectation section and the lowest agreement was with the implementation of the accreditation standards.
