What is JCI Accreditation?
In response to growing interest in accreditation and quality improvement worldwide, the Joint Commission launched its international accreditation program in 1999. Joint Commission International accreditation standards are based on international consensus standards and set uniform, achievable expectations for structures, processes and outcomes for hospitals. Joint Commission International`s standards for hospitals clearly define the principals and processes needed to assess the key functions of acute care organizations and associated ambulatory settings.
