Apollo Proton Cancer Centre (APCC), the first Proton Therapy Centre in South Asia and The Middle East, announced on Friday its accreditation by Joint Commission International (JCI), the recognized global leader in health care accreditation.
The Joint Commission International accreditation is the gold standard given to organizations that practice and follow the highest International Standards in order to provide world-class patient care and safety.
A team of expert JCI physicians, nurses, and health care administrators evaluated more than a thousand measurable elements and assessed the level of performance in relation to established standards and efforts for continuous improvements. This accreditation is proof of the meticulous standards of hospital management and cancer treatment established in the centre, enabling improved and advanced care for patients.
This makes APCC, India’s first dedicated advanced cancer centre to receive this international accreditation, and the 8th hospital in the Apollo Hospitals Group to join the portfolio of JCI accredited hospitals.
