Joint Commission International Accreditation Standards for Hospitals, 8th Edition, provides the basis for accreditation of hospitals throughout the world. The Joint Commission International (JCI) standards featured in the manual define the performance expectations, structures, and functions that must be in place for a hospital to be accredited by JCI.
The standards are divided into four main sections:
- Accreditation Participation Requirements
- Patient-Centered Standards
- Health Care Organization Management Standards
- Global Health Impact Standards
In addition, the manual includes two chapters for hospitals that meet eligibility criteria for academic medical center accreditation. These standards address additional requirements for human subjects research and medical professional education.
Within each section, standards are separated into chapters. Each standard includes an intent, which describes the rationale for the standard and provides examples (when applicable) on the application of the standards, and measurable elements, which are the specific requirements of the standard.
Key changes in the 8th edition:
- Accreditation Participation Requirements now surveyed as scorable standards
