JCAHO introduces three new areas of survey concentration.
The Joint Commission has released a new and improved 1993 Accreditation Manual for Hospitals. New to the manual are three chapters of standards that will be used to survey areas that include patient and family education and staff training and orientation. The manual is also shorter.
