Our Surveyors

Joint 91Ï㽶¶ÌÊÓƵ surveyors are specially trained professionals with experience in the assisted living industry who understand the day-to-day issues that confront providers and have the hands-on expertise to help organizations resolve them.

Understand Your Survey

Providing a valuable external perspective of your performance against nationally recognized standards, our experts share industry best practices and pinpoint risks before they can become costly problems.

91Ï㽶¶ÌÊÓƵ’s accreditation process begins with an on-site survey that involves:

  • Tracing the patient’s experience, which involves observing services provided by various caregivers and programs within the organization, as well as hand-offs between them.
  • On-site observations and interviews.
  • Assessment of the physical facility.
  • Review of documents provided by the organization.
