Ridgeview Institute: JCAHO Seal

Ridgeview Institute

JCAHO Gold Seal of Approval -

In November 2006, Ridgeview Institute completed an unannounced, thorough on-site review of the quality and safety of care being provided at our facility. Ridgeview Institute has once again earned the Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval^TM.

The conclusion of the on-site survey is a validation of Ridgeview’s commitment and work to continuously comply with rigorous national standards.

Ongoing compliance with Joint Commission standards results in sound management practices in the day-to-day delivery of safe, high quality care for our patients and their families. In fact, the Joint Commission survey serves as an independent audit of our organization’s commitment to continuous quality improvement.

Accreditation does not “endorse” or “guarantee” an organization’s quality of care; nor does it “prove,” “assure” or “testify” that an organization provides high quality care, but accreditation does demonstrate an organization’s commitment to its continuous delivery.

Ridgeview has also demonstrated full implementation of all National Patient Safety Goals.
