Webinar: Navigating the 2026 Accreditation 360: The New Standard from The Joint Commission — What It Means for Your Organization

Description:

Join us for an essential webinar exploring the sweeping changes the Joint Commission is rolling out January 1, 2026 — including the launch of “Accreditation 360,” a major overhaul of accreditation standards, and the introduction of new national performance expectations.

The transition represents the most significant update to JC accreditation in decades. While many standards are being consolidated and simplified, the shift also raises the bar in accountability, particularly around staffing, safety, and continuous operational readiness. Early awareness and proactive alignment will help your organization avoid compliance gaps and take full advantage of the streamlined process.

This session will break down what’s changing, why it matters, and how hospitals and critical-access facilities can get ahead with preparation and compliance.
