New JCAHO accreditation resource
Plus 25 contact hours of free nursing CE
The new Joint Commission standards are comprehensive, but one resource for home care agencies can help you pass a survey on the Joint Commission’s 1997-1998 standards with flying colors. Strategies for Successful JCAHO Homecare Accreditation 1997-1998: How to Prepare for 1997-1998 Survey With Accreditation With Commendation as Your Goal is now available from American Health Consultants, publisher of Homecare Quality Management.
Written by a director of quality management who achieved Accreditation With Commendation for her previous agency using this very method, this 400-page book helps you prepare for survey in every way. It takes you through the Joint Commission standards manual chapter by chapter, giving you real-life advice that works for survey survival and compliance with each JCAHO chapter. More than 70 pages of sample documentation and staff education tools, checklists, data collection forms, assessments, and care paths help guide you through the survey maze. You’ll also find case studies detailing your peers’ successes, and you can earn free continuing nursing education hours for you and your staff through the manual.
If you have a home care survey coming up in the next two years, don’t wait. Call (800) 688-2421 for more information.
