The
Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations
will conduct an unannounced 2007 accreditation survey of
Peninsula Hospital Center.
The purpose
of the survey will be to evaluate the organization’s compliance
with nationally established Joint Commission standards. The
survey results will be used to determine whether, and the
conditions under which, accreditation should be awarded the
organization.
Joint
Commission standards deal with organization quality and safety
of care issues and the safety of the environment in which care
is provided. Anyone believing that he or she has pertinent and
valid information about such matters may request a public
information interview with the Joint Commission’s field
representatives at the time of the survey. Information
presented at the interview will be carefully evaluated for
relevance to the accreditation process. Requests for a public
information interview must be made in writing and should be sent
to the Joint Commission. The request must also indicate the
nature of the information to be provided at the interview. Such
requests should be addressed to:
Division of

interview prior to survey, indicating the location, date, and
time of the interview and the name of the surveyor who will
