Accreditation Connection, March 3, 2006

 

The only small hospital in West Texas that still participates in the JCAHO accreditation process scored better than average on its unannounced survey, conducted February 22-24, according to the Sweetwater (TX) Reporter.

 

Rolling Plains Memorial Hospital, located in Sweetwater, received far fewer Requirements for Improvements than the average hospital that participates in the JCAHO accreditation process (three vs. 15-20). Two hospital board members who participated in the final survey conference reported that JCAHO surveyors stated that the hospital and community should be very proud of the final survey report.
