    • Standard NR.1 pertains to specific healthcare practices or policies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To inform stakeholders about the decision regarding standard NR.1.
    • To communicate the reinforcement of the standard's intent.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of field input regarding standard NR.1.
    • Decision-making process by JCAHO leadership.

    Main Results:

    • JCAHO decided against modifying standard NR.1.
    • JCAHO adopted clarifying language to enhance the standard.

    Conclusions:

    • Standard NR.1 remains unchanged in its core but is strengthened.
    • Enhanced language aims to improve understanding and application of the standard.
