- Joint Commission International (JCI)
Hospital accreditation certifies that a given institution effectively complies with strict patient safety protocols. Created in 1994 in the United States, the Joint Commission International (JCI) is a non-governmental organization that accredits hospitals regarding respect, quality and care for the rights of patients and their families. With strict rules focused on safety, JCI protocols involve the management of drugs in general, the team’s capacity and the management of hospital information.
JCI operates in more than 100 countries, promoting rigorous standards of care to ensure that hospitals achieve levels of excellence in their performance. Receiving a Joint Commission accreditation represents maximum excellence in patient care, following all safety and medical quality protocols.
