Editor's note: The following is an excerpt from the new Joint Commission Survey Coordinator's Handbook, Ninth Edition, by Patricia Pejakovich, RN, BSN, MPA, CPHQ, senior consultant with The Greeley Company, a division of HCPro, Inc., in Marblehead, MA, and Steven W. Bryant, vice president and managing director of The Greeley Company. Treat the completion of your unannounced survey as a performance improvement outcome and assess the strengths and weaknesses of your continuous survey readiness process. You may choose to do so in two separate sessions: one to address the rollout plan, and the other to address standards compliance.
