Joint Commission compliance and readiness

What we review

We trace the department against the Joint Commission standards that surveyors apply to sterile processing and high-level disinfection.

• Infection prevention and control practice in decontamination, preparation, sterilization and storage.
• Environment of care items: ventilation, pressure relationships, eyewash, utilities and room condition.
• Records a surveyor asks to see: cycle logs, indicator results, recalls, training and competency files.
• Tracer readiness: whether staff can show and explain the process at the point of work.
• Open items from earlier surveys or internal audits.

What you receive

• A readiness rating and score, with any open severity-4 item called out.
• Findings written the way a surveyor would cite them, each with the standard and the fix.
• A prioritized corrective action plan sized to the time you have before survey.
• A follow-up reassessment to confirm the fixes held.

Who it is for

Hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers with a survey window ahead, a recent survey with findings, or a need to show leadership where the department stands.
