In early 1979 the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals published a manual consolidating standards for adult psychiatric, child and adolescent, alcoholism, and drug abuse programs. The standards became effective on October 1, 1979. Instead of reviewing separately each kind of program within a facility, surveyors will conduct a simultaneous, four-part survey in which they review all aspects of services related to the four groups of standards: those for program management, patient management (intake, assessment, and treatment plans), patient services, and facility management. The new standards specify a minimum of six kinds of quality assurance activities and stress a clinical staff organization that has developed a comprehensive quality assurance system. They reflect a service-system concept more applicable to a variety of age and disability groups than to the treatment models on which the earlier adult psychiatric and child and adolescent standards were heavily based.
1979年初，医院评审联合委员会发布了一本手册，整合了针对成人精神病、儿童与青少年、酗酒及药物滥用项目的标准。这些标准于1979年10月1日生效。评审员将不再分别审查机构内的各类项目，而是进行一项包含四个部分的同步调查，在调查中审查与四类标准相关的服务的所有方面：项目管理、患者管理（入院、评估和治疗计划）、患者服务以及设施管理。新的标准规定了至少六种质量保证活动，并强调要有一个已建立全面质量保证体系的临床 staff organization。它们体现了一种服务体系概念，这种概念比早期成人精神病以及儿童与青少年标准所严重依赖的治疗模式更适用于各种年龄和残疾群体。
