Visit the Joint Commission Standards Website
An independent, not-for-profit organization, The Joint Commission accredits and certifies more than 17,000 healthcare organizations and programs in the United States. Joint Commission accreditation and certification is recognized nationwide as a symbol of quality that reflects an organization’s commitment to meeting certain performance standards. Implementation of the CPM Framework™ and solutions can help your organization achieve and maintain national or international Joint Commission accreditation.
Because the Joint Commission standards and compliance requirements align with the elements of the CPM Framework, the CPM Resource Center is ideally suited to provide your organization with the tools and capabilities needed to effectively maintain accreditation. In addition, our patient-centered approach to healthcare aligns with the Tracer Methodology, the cornerstone of the Joint Commission on-site accreditation survey.
CPM Resource Center clients have achieved 100 percent compliance with the Joint Commission accreditation standards and requirements.
“When the Joint Commission came to some of our hospitals, those patient care executives were able to sit down one-to-one with them and walk them through the CPM Framework and documentation, explain the intent and what they expected as outcomes. The Joint Commission said they were very pleased with what they saw. They told us in one of our hospitals that we avoided citation because of using the CPM Framework and documentation. They said they will look for the CPM Framework in action when they go to our other affiliate hospitals to make sure everyone is using it.” – Tracy Forrest, RN, BSN, Sutter Interdisciplinary Practice Model Lead
