Book excerpt: Joint Commission International Accreditation Standards for the Care Continuum presents brand new accreditation standards for international health care organizations providing care and services to individuals either at home or in institutional settings for chronic care, rehabilitation, and end of life care. The new standards meet a growing demand for an effective evaluation of care and services outside acute care and in movement across the care continuum over a lifetime. Developed by an expert multinational and multidisciplinary task force through extensive review and testing, these consensus standards reflect new models of care and service delivery emerging in many nations.
