On-Demand webinar now available on Memory Care Certification requirements for ALCs
A new, on-demand webinar is available that introduces the standards and elements of performance (EPs) for The Joint Commission’s new Memory Care Certification (MCC) for assisted living communities (ALCs).
The new certification program, which launched July 1, is an optional specialty certification designed to ensure that ALCs serving residents who have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia are meeting standards that support the delivery of high-quality care in a safe environment. The requirements reflect current scientific evidence and best practices in memory care, align with the Alzheimer’s Association’s (ALZ) Dementia Care Practice Recommendations, and build on existing requirements for The Joint Commission’s ALC Accreditation Program.
The on-demand webinar offers examples for how the requirements would be applied and highlights resources available to assist organizations seeking certification.
