Licensure visit in April 2004

The joint commission is coming, and preparations this year are evolving - along with medical practice generally - toward a "real time" demonstration of patient safety, explained the physician most directly responsible for getting Stanford Hospital ready for the April visit. An inspection team from the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations and the Institute for Medical Quality are scheduled to visit Stanford April 13 - 16. The state Department of Health Services inspection will also occur this year at a time yet to be set. See MORE
