Abstract

The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations was founded in 1951 as a private, not-for-profit organization that evaluates and accredits hospitals and other healthcare organizations. In 1987, the JCAHO launched its Agenda for Change to create a more modern and sophisticated accreditation process to place primary emphasis on actual performance. Coincident with this new emphasis, a number of task forces were established, including two for infection control standards.

摘要

医疗保健组织认证联合委员会成立于1951年，是一个评估并认证医院及其他医疗保健组织的私人非营利性组织。1987年，联合委员会启动了“变革议程”，以创建一个更现代、更完善的认证流程，将重点主要放在实际绩效上。与此新重点相一致，成立了一些特别工作组，其中包括两个负责感染控制标准的工作组。
