Joint Commission behavioral health care field surveyors are behavioral health care professionals, employed by us, who understand the day-to-day issues that confront your organization and have the hands-on expertise to help you resolve them. The behavioral health care surveyor cadre is composed of psychologists, social workers, behavioral health care nurses, and administrators with experience in the field they are surveying. We feel surveying is an art, and each of our surveyors conducts an average of 16 site visits per year. By keeping our surveyor team small and actively surveying, their extensive experience allows them to collect and share good practices across Joint Commission organizations, helping you stay up to date with current practices.
ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥ ensures surveyor consistency by providing several weeks of initial training and supervision followed by yearly continuing education. A rigorous training process and certification examination must be successfully completed before becoming a Joint Commission behavioral health surveyor. This ongoing training and evaluation, coupled with our proprietary survey tools, helps ensure that your on-site survey is an educational experience.
