Acreditations

Mexican General Health Council

The objective of the National System for the Certification of Medical Care Establishments (SiNaCEAM) is to contribute to the continuous improvement of the quality of the medical care services and the safety provided to patients, as well as to encourage participating institutions to maintain competitive advantages to reach, sustain and improve their position in the environment. In this context, the Certification of Medical Care Establishments is the process by which the General Health Council recognizes health care establishments, which participate voluntarily in the evaluation and meet the necessary standards to provide services with good quality in medical care and patient safety.

Joint Commission International (JCI)

The accreditation of Joint Commission International (JCI) is the certification of hospital services most recognized internationally. This process reflects the commitment to excellence in patient safety and care, and serves to recognize that health care services live up to the most important international practices. While accreditation helps demonstrate the overall commitment of an organization with quality, certification in turn demonstrates excellence in specific areas by promoting better results through the integration and coordination of care. The standards evaluated by the Joint Commission International accreditation provide meaningful measurements to improve quality and safety of the patient in all the clinical and administrative functions of the Hospital of intensive care, as well as to adopt continuous improvements in the performance. The medical institution must demonstrate its high levels of security and patient care, which is the case of Hospital Galenia.
