examples of data joint commission examines and how a hospital can capture that data for the joint commission
This is a USA based question and is part of a college nursing program
The Joint Commission was formerly the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) and previous to that the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals (JCAH). … In 1987 the company was renamed the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO, pronounced “Jay-co”).
Scenario: You have been appointed to the Clinical Information Systems Committee, which is charged with looking at ways that automation can facilitate data collection for the next accreditation visit by the Joint Commission.
Question 1 – List examples of the types of data the Joint Commission will be examining
Question 2 – How this information can be captured by the hospital using automation.
Intext citiations if needed and refernces at the bottom – thanks
