This excerpt comes from the HCPro book, Environment of Care Compliance Manual, Sixth Edition.
Each section of the EC requires a management plan, which gives the surveyor an overview of the way the facility is addressing the requirements of each standard. All management plans need to be identical in format to show the surveyor that the people responsible for the EC chapter work as a team and communicate well with each other. This also shows the surveyor what processes your facility uses to ensure compliance with each section of the EC chapter.
