Campaign '92: three more years!
Creative planning and well-executed graphics produced an upbeat approach to preparing staff for a JCAHO accreditation visit. Five humorous and highly visible strategies were used in a coordinated eight-week "campaign." Not only did the institution "pass the test" but there was a consensus among staff nurses that they had felt comfortable, confident and in control during interviews with the JCAHO surveyor.
