Over the course of years, JCI has accredited hospitals in Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. JCI accreditation is coveted by many hospital facilities and is achieved by following best practices through a deliberate and meticulous process.
JCI accreditation plays a vital role in validating the quality of services provided by hospitals/healthcare facilities delivering excellence and continuous improvement of patient care.
“From a patient perspective, the JCI re-accreditation adds an extra layer of trust to any hospital, assuring their best practices are achieved in safety and quality care, state-of-the-art facilities, and are complemented by highly skilled staff and specialists who were able to maintain the Hospital’s accreditation,” said Mr Liam Duffy, Chief Executive Officer, Sheikh Khalifa General Hospital, adding that the hospital is also acclaimed for its outstanding nursing care as well as its sophisticated equipment infrastructure.
