NHC's core competencies include pre-survey assessments and mock surveys for JC accreditation, CMS Consultants for compliance with Conditions of Participation, and patient safety risk assessments such as ligature risk evaluations, survey readiness and evaluation of medical staff bylaws, credentialing and privileging, pharmacy compounding, medication management evaluations, sterile processing, sterilization, high-level disinfection, behavioral health, long-term care survey readiness, and medical staff education. As part of the mock surveys, NHC consultants provide complete education including mentorship and feedback to on-site staff both during the tracers as well as at the end of the full survey process where trends are clearly identified that compare against critical findings happening across the United States. NHC delivers a full written report electronically of all findings to the facility including leadership. All final NHC reports include the SAFER Matrix making clear and specific references to The Joint Commission standards and elements of performance in need of improvement.
We lead and support numerous projects and have a track record of proven success resolving State and Federal Survey immediate jeopardy issues. Year-after-year, we support lengthy and ongoing survey projects preparing organizations for their return surveyor visits.
