| Four safety goals from The Joint Commission |
| The Joint Commission's 2008 National Patient Safety Goals have significant implications for laboratories. The goals highlight problematic areas in healthcare and describe evidence- and expert-based solutions to these problems.
"The goals focus on areas to improve patient safety in the laboratory," says Kenneth A. Powers, a Joint Commission media relations manager.
The Joint Commission (formerly JCAHO) assesses compliance with the requirements throughout its regular accreditation cycle in on-site surveys and its periodic performance review. |
