For this week’s article, “What is the Hospital’s No Smoking Policy?”visit http://www.bwhpikenotes.org/jcaho/default.cfm#countdown
BWH supports a safe and healthful environment for its patients, employees and visitors as a non-smoking institution. The hospital recognizes that smoking may pose both fire and health hazards; therefore, smoking is prohibited on all hospital property except for designated outdoor areas.
Visit www.bwhpikenotes.org/jcaho/default.cfm#countdown for this or any other “Countdown to JCAHO” article, as mentioned in other issues of BWH Bulletin.
From now until the January 2004 JCAHO Survey, a weekly on-line “Ask Yourself” article series will be available at (www.bwhpikenotes.org). It is important for all staff to familiarize themselves with the content of these articles and to be prepared to answer related questions from a JCAHO Surveyor during the Survey.
Staff are also reminded that the 4th edition of Finishing Touches is available online. This helpful tool is a consolidated resource for all staff to prepare for the January 2004 Survey.
