Get the Standards
Joint Commission standards help you develop strategies to address the most complex issues and identifies key vulnerabilities in the patient care experience. Developed with input from health care professionals, providers, consumers, and other experts, the standards ensure a comprehensive review of your patient care process.
We offer a free 90-day trial of the nursing care center standards for organizations who are considering accreditation but have not yet applied. Reviewing the standards is key to assessing your readiness to apply for accreditation.
Is your organization ready to implement the standards? You can assess your readiness in a variety of ways, including:
Conduct mock surveys. Walk through your facility and see how well you meet the requirements.
Identify gaps in compliance. Document areas where improvement is needed. This will help target your efforts and prioritize where resources need to be allocated.
Develop timetable for compliance. Once you've identified areas for improvement, assign completion dates for each gap identified. This will help you formulate a readiness date for your on-site survey.
