Did U Ever Feel?

That JCAHO Preparation is Again LUDICROUS?


I hate the repeated (in many various facilities) running around (by the ever supportive administration) like chickens with their heads cut off anytime an inspection is advertised.


Any facility should simply live it day-to-day. Not just when they might show up.


The FACT is that any facility that relies on Medicare/Medicaid funding has to live up to Joint Commission standards..They are a necessary evil for those that support these measures. A business not a government entity though I think many really believe they are .gov. They are .org. That only means they are an organization NOT part of the government.  Although,
Medicare and Medicaid have made JACHO certification a standard for their payments.


So that's why you have to  run around and act like its all perfect...Is there really ever a perfect world???


And really JACHO, why prepare facilities for SURPRISE visits? Really? Just come on in and see how day-to-day life really is...No heads-up or warnings...


AND POINT 2---IF YOU ARE FOLLOWING UNIVERSAL STANDARDS AND WEARING GLOVES WHY DO ARTIFICIAL NAILS EVEN MATTER???..Really, your hands are gloved, You and the Patient are protected, the nails should not be an issue...


Sometimes, even JCAHO needs a CLUE? or just buy the Game...
