Is the Elliot an accredited hospital?
Yes. The Joint Commission accredits Elliot Hospital. The Joint Commission (TJC) is an independent, not-for-profit organization, established over 50 years ago. A board that includes physicians, nurses, and consumers governs TJC. TJC sets the standards by which health care quality is measured in America and around the world by evaluating the quality and safety of care for more than 16,000 health care organizations. To maintain and earn accreditation, organizations must have an extensive on-site review by a team of TJC health care professionals, at least once every three years. The purpose of the review is to evaluate the organization’s performance in areas that affect your care. Accreditation may then be awarded based on how well the organizations met TJC standards.
