JCAHO Public Notice
The Joint Commission of Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to improve the safety and quality of care provided to the public through the provision of healthcare accreditation related services that support performance improvement in healthcare organizations.
To achieve accreditation by the JCAHO, healthcare organizations must undergo an extensive on-site survey every three years that evaluates the overall safety of the environment and the organization’s compliance with many quality standards as defined by the JCAHO.
As part of the accreditation process, JCAHO encourages open communication from consumers in matters of patient safety and quality of care. If you have complaints or concerns that have not been adequately addressed through the hospital’s management, you may contact the Joint Commission at:
