The Joint Commission issued a brief reminder to organizations on how to provide feedback and comments on Joint Commission standards.
According to The Joint Commission Online, the accrediting organization is interested in hearing which standards hospitals and other stakeholders value the most, as well as those which they consider the most problematic. Comments can be submitted on the Web through an online form, found here.
