International accreditations

Our main hospitals have the endorsement of the most important international bodies for evaluating and accrediting the safety and quality standards of the medical act. The fact that we are the undisputed leader in the quality of medical care in Romania is the result of an extraordinary effort of evaluation, monitoring and thorough and constant implementation of hundreds of quality standards and parameters.

 

Patients do not actually see all these parameters of quality, hygiene and safety evaluated annually by international institutions, but they feel them in the quality of care.

What does Joint Commission International accreditation mean?

The Joint Commission International (JCI) is the world leader in international health accreditation, the first and only Collaborating Center of the World Health Organization.

JCI is the most prestigious and rigorous international accreditation, and for obtaining it 240 quality standards have been evaluated, each standard having at least 4 indicators. There are approximately 1000 indicators analyzed to demonstrate compliance with JCI standards.

The accreditation process lasts approximately 2 years, during this period being analyzed all the processes and procedures that underlie the medical act and that prevent human or procedural errors. In addition, in order to maintain this gold standard, it is necessary to re-evaluate hospitals every three years.

Specifically, for patients, the gold standard awarded by JCI is a guarantee for:

Safety of the medical act

Low complication rate

Low number of intrahospital nosocomial infections

Efficiency and effectiveness of the medical act

The only hospitals that have JCI accreditation in Romania:

Ponderas Academic Hospital
