Welcome to this quick demo on Joint Commission's E-dition
for Nursing Care Center Accreditation.
E-dition is the electronic version of the accreditation standards manual
for Nursing Care Center Accreditation.
Organizations who would like to preview the standards
can request a 90-day free trial access to E-dition.
Simply go to our Joint Commission NCC web page,
and under the Learn tab of our Standards page,
you will find the link to request the E-dition.
Once your request is processed,
you will receive an email from Joint Commission Resources
with the subject heading "Software License Confirmation."
Click on the Sign-in Page found in this email
and log in with your username and password.
If it's your first time logging in,
use the Forgot Password option
to set up a password.
Once you are in the Joint Commission Resources page,
you will want to click on this link that says Browse and Search EPs
right beside the E-dition logo
to access the manual.
You'll know that you're in E-dition
when you see the Welcome to E-dition! page.
Let me show you that.
Here, you'll see Welcome to E-dition!
In this blue area here,
you will find E-dition's navigation tree.
Click on the plus sign beside the Accreditation Requirements section
to display the areas or accreditation chapters
for which we will have standards.
Clicking on a chapter, such as Infection Control,
will display the standards table to the right.
You'll find an overview of the chapter and a chapter outline
by expanding these sections here of the manual.
Here in the table is where you will see listed
all the standards relating to infection control.
To the right of the standard statements
are action buttons that allows you to copy,
print, or email standards to share to others.
When you click on this gray triangle here beside the standard,
it will expand to display the Elements of Performance
for that standard.
Elements of Performance are a way
to demonstrate your current compliance to your standards,
so it will describe that.
There are additional information to the right of the EPs,
such as whether this standard, or EP,
is crosswalk to regulatory requirement
or if documentation is required,
as indicated by a D icon.
Over here, on top of the table,
you'll find Worksheets tab
where you'll find helpful tools,
such as prompts for assessing your current compliance
and written documentation checklist.
There's a Help tab on the upper right-hand corner
if you'd like to connect to a standards person
or to contact technical support.
Use the Logout option right here
to end your session.
We hope this quick demo has given you an idea of E-dition
and will start to explore The Joint Commission standards
for Nursing Care Center Accreditation.
Thank you so much.
