Emergency Management (EM) (Office Based Surgery / Office-Based Surgery)


Meetings - Emergency Management
Publish | January 01, 0001
Are Emergency Management meetings required and what frequency must the occur?

The Emergency Management standards do not require meetings, either regularly scheduled or as needed. Meetings are typically an effective method to coordinate EM activities. The standards require that there be evidence of standards compliance for each of the applicable elements of performance. For example, some standards require various levels of participation, communication, planning, etc., but there is no requirement that these be accomplished in meetings. If the organization establishes meeting at regular intervals as policy, then the organization is expected to adhere to that policy. [EM.01.01.01]
