The Joint Commission International (JCI) is a U.S based accreditation body dedicated to improving healthcare quality and safety around the world. The Joint Commission strives to continuously improve the safety and quality of care provided to the public through the provision of healthcare accreditation and related services that support performance improvement in healthcare organizations. Since 1951, The Joint Commission has maintained state-of-the-art standards that focus on improving the quality and safety of care provided by healthcare organizations. Its comprehensive accreditation process evaluates an organization’s compliance with these standards and other accreditation requirements. Joint Commission accreditation is recognized as a symbol of quality that reflects an organization’s commitment to meeting certain performance standards. To earn and maintain The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval an organization must undergo a rigorous on-site survey by a Joint Commission survey team at least every three years. JCI is a benchmark for quality healthcare worldwide. We have met the international set of standards laid by JCI covering, infection control, facility Safety, medication management, patient safety, quality of care and evidence based practice guidelines. This accreditation stands testimony to our commitment towards patient safety and continuous quality improvement.
