➡️ What is The Joint Commission?
TJC stands for The Joint Commission. It's a nonprofit organization that is responsible for the accreditation and certification of more than 22,000 healthcare organizations in the United States. The mission of The Joint Commission is to continuously improve health care for the public, in collaboration with other stakeholders, by evaluating health care organizations and inspiring them to excel in providing safe and effective care of the highest quality and value. Its vision is that all people always experience the safest, highest quality, best-value health care across all settings.

➡️ TJC and Respiratory Therapists:
Respiratory Therapists are often involved with surveyors from The Joint Commission whenever their facility is seeking accreditation. They are responsible for upholding the core performance measures of respiratory-related patient care. It should be noted that accreditation by The Joint Commission is usually a requirement for Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements by the majority of state governments in the United States. Typically, healthcare organizations are subject to a three-year accreditation cycle by The Joint Commission that involves an unannounced survey and inspection. This means that each hospital or organization will not receive an advanced notice of the survey date. Instead, The Joint Commission shows up randomly to inspect the facility and ensure that medical care is being delivered according to their standards. If compliance is deemed applicable, accreditation is awarded to that organization.
