Program Description
This webinar will help hospitals prepare for their unannounced Joint Commission surveys by being aware of the tracers used during the survey process. Practicing tracers are a great way to prepare for your survey and to get staff to be more comfortable with the survey process. This session will focus on individual, program-specific and system tracers.
Learning Objectives
- Describe the different tracers that may be discussed during a Joint Commission survey such as surgery, anesthesia, rehab, tissue, storage, and respiratory care.
- Discuss what is covered during the medication management tracer.
- List issues discussed during the individual patient tracers such as waived testing, organ donation, discharge planning, and patient flow.
