Following five very long and exhausting days where the entire hospital underwent an intense and thorough evaluation and assessment by a special team from the Joint Commission International (JCI), Rabin Medical Center became an accredited member of the JCI, receiving top grades and praise from the assessment team.
Every aspect of the hospital was evaluated by this expert team to determine if the hospital met all the requirements for JCI accreditation, whose standards and evaluation methods are recognized worldwide as distinctive tools designed to provide quantifiable benchmarks for patient care quality, particularly to improve patient safety.
This was truly a group effort, where the entire hospital worked as a team, and thanks to the hard work of each and every department, Rabin Medical Center now joins more than 300 public and private health care organizations in 39 countries that have been accredited by the JCI.
The new Rabin Fellows program just launched by the American Friends of Rabin Medical Center (AFRMC) will designate fellows and support doctors, researchers, and educational/medical programs between the Rabin Medical Center and the United States.
