Jcaho Accreditation
Our treatment centers uphold the highest standard of patient care and are accredited by the Joint Commission to ensure we comply with all regulations and guidelines.
What Is JCAHO?
JCAHO stands for Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations. JCAHO was founded in 1951 and works daily to improve health care for the public by evaluating health care organizations and inspiring them to excel. The Joint Commission enterprise is a global driver of quality improvement and patient safety in health care. Through leading practices, unmatched knowledge and expertise, and rigorous standards, they help organizations across the continuum of care lead the way to zero harm.
Its vision is that all people always experience the safest, highest quality, best-value health care across all settings. The Joint Commission accredits and certifies more than 22,000 health care organizations and programs in the United States, including hospitals and health care organizations that provide ambulatory and office-based surgery, behavioral health, home health care, laboratory and nursing care center services. An independent, not-for-profit organization, The Joint Commission is the nation’s oldest and largest standards-setting and accrediting body in health care.
The Joint Commission has two nonprofit affiliate organizations: The Joint Commission Center for Transforming Healthcare aims to solve health care’s most critical safety and quality problems and Joint Commission Resources (JCR) offers educational services, publications, and software to complement your accreditation experience. Joint Commission International, a division of JCR, accredits and certifies international health care organizations.
What Is A JCAHO Accredited Treatment Center?
JCAHO accreditation or certification is not mandatory. Health care organizations, programs, and services voluntarily pursue accreditation and certification. A JCAHO accredited facility must comply with the accreditation surveys to become and remain certified. Accreditation surveys is when Joint Commission surveyors visit accredited health care organizations a minimum of once every 36 months to evaluate standards compliance. This visit is called a survey. All regular Joint Commission accreditation surveys are unannounced. Joint Commission surveyors are highly trained experts who are doctors, nurses, hospital administrators, laboratory medical technologists, and other health care professionals.
During the survey, surveyors select patients randomly and use their medical records as a roadmap to evaluate standards compliance. As surveyors trace a patient’s experience in a health care organization, they talk to the doctors, nurses, and other staff who interacted with the patient. Throughout the accreditation cycle, organizations are provided with a self-assessment scoring tool to help monitor their ongoing standards compliance. Joint Commission accreditation is woven into the fabric of a health care organization’s operations.

The hospital accreditation standards number more than 250, and address everything from patient rights and education, infection control, medication management, and preventing medical errors, to how the hospital verifies that its doctors, nurses, and other staff are qualified and competent, how it prepares for emergencies, and how it collects data on its performance and uses that data to improve itself.
