Measure 7.1.1:
(All) Process to assess the availability of health care services
HAI/AR Specific Programs or Activities
HAI/AR Programs are encouraged to keep an updated inventory of all the healthcare facilities (including clinics, nursing homes and any other facilities where medical procedures are conducted or healthcare is delivered) in their jurisdiction as well as the regulatory or oversight entity for those facilities.
Opportunities / Considerations For Connections Between HAI/AR and Accreditation
Context: HDs must provide documentation of collaborative processes to assess availability of healthcare services. Sharing of pertinent data is also required.
Opportunity: HAI or AR stakeholders may participate in this process. If HAI or AR staff have information that speak to the availability of needed healthcare services, this would be one opportunity to in part support this measure.
