I came to work this week with new energy and excitement! For the last several months, I’ve started each Monday wondering if The Joint Commission would arrive, and each week I would feel disappointment that they didn’t come, as well as a bit of relief—knowing the stress that survey week often brings.
But once the surveyors arrived, our months-long preparation and hard work was rewarded. We left a positive impression on the surveyor team, who noted it was clear we have a wonderful team of people who are passionate about being here. On top of that, our final report showed zero condition level findings and no need for a resurvey.
Although the Joint Commission may not be surveying us every week, I know that we’ll keep our standards high because that’s the type of care our patients deserve, and that’s the type of care we strive to provide.
