2.5.0.0 Qual­i­ty As­sur­ance Stan­dards

Even the best or­ders may not be car­ried out in a way that im­proves qual­i­ty, nor are they au­to­mat­i­cal­ly up­dat­ed when new ev­i­dence aris­es. To this end, the Joint Com­mis­sion has an ac­cred­i­ta­tion pro­gram for the hos­pi­tal care of di­a­betes (18), and the So­ci­ety of Hos­pi­tal Medicine has a work­book for pro­gram de­vel­op­ment (19).
