About the Joint Commission Center for Transforming Healthcare

As a high-reliability partner, the Joint Commission Center for Transforming Healthcare works with organizations across the care continuum, to help them design and strengthen their own systems and structures to achieve reductions in harm on their journey to high reliability. Created in 2008 as a nonprofit affiliate of The Joint Commission, the Joint Commission Center for Transforming Healthcare creates products and services that promote and develop high reliability in health care, including the Targeted Solutions Tool ® for Hand Hygiene, Safe Surgery, Hand-off Communications, and Preventing Falls, and the Oro ® 2.0 High Reliability Self-Assessment web-based tool.

The Center’s leading assessment tools enable senior leaders to evaluate their readiness for high reliability health care, identifying key information about strengths and opportunities. No matter where an organization is on its journey, the Center’s Robust Process Improvement ® method, blending Lean Six Sigma and formal change management, ensures organizations are equipped with a sustainable program that generates engagement and results long after launch.

With strong leadership and a partner like the Center, organizations that implement high-reliability principles can reach safety goals they once believed unattainable – and address issues long considered unsolvable.
