Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to JCAHO, hospital staff must act as skilled client educators, meaning that all healthcare professionals should be trained and capable of educating clients on relevant health information. While all clients should ideally receive some form of education during their care, it is not a requirement for JCAHO accreditation. Physicians are not solely responsible for client education, as all members of the healthcare team should be involved. While documentation of client education is important, the method of documentation (such as using a flow sheet) is not specified by JCAHO.
