Who is the JCAHO?
The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations sets the standards by which healthcare quality is measured. JCAHO accreditation means that UTHCPC has met the needs of people they have served in demonstrated to the standards.
|
UTHCPC undergoes an extensive on-site review by JCAHO professionals to maintain their accreditation. The review evaluates UTHCPC’s performance in all areas that affect patient care and then evaluated and scored. Accreditation may then be awarded based on how well UTHCPC met JCAHO standards.
