Survey Preparation:  JCAHO and CARF

 Images offers complete consultative services for rehabilitation services in preparation for JCAHO and CARF surveys.  Many consulting companies offer accreditation consulting services but have no specific expertise in rehabilitation.  Our services, provided for rehab by rehab professionals, focus on the systems, processes, policies and procedures within the rehabilitation services of your organization.   With a growing focus on rehab services in the survey process, it is important for the rehab service to have the same level of support and preparation that is provided for other services of the organization.  

 Our approach to survey preparation involves assessment of your current level of performance, recommendations and plans for improvement, consultative assistance with implementation and assessment of outcomes.

Image & Associates can assist your organization in meeting the requirements for survey including the following areas:

• Assessment of compliance with current JCAHO and CARF standards

• Mock Surveys for the rehab department

• Gap analysis and action planning for compliance with standards

• Needs assessments for ongoing training

• Determining competency and establishing ongoing programs for maintenance of competency

• Job Descriptions

• Forms and tools for patient documentation

• Review and development of an effective Performance Improvement program
