New certification option!

Joint Commission–accredited hospitals now have the option of seeking certification for palliative care services provided to inpatients. Palliative care is the field of medicine designed to improve the quality of life of patients and their families by relieving the pain, symptoms, and stress of a serious or debilitating illness.

The all-new 2012 Palliative Care Certification Manual provides all the standards, rationales, elements of performance, and scoring information your program needs to achieve and maintain continuous compliance under the new certification program. Details about The Joint Commission’s certification process, performance improvement, sentinel events, Certification Participation Requirements, and more provide a complete picture of what goes into these new certification requirements.

Price for Non-Certified Organizations: $125
