Regulatory compliance is critical to ensuring patient safety. "Safety is huge for patients. You never want anyone to go home sicker than they came into our facilities. We can't do anything about what brought them to the hospital, but we don't want their condition to worsen because of the condition of the building." Kathy N., Director, Regulatory Compliance Learn more about Medxcel's vital role in regulatory compliance here: www.medxcel.com #patientsafety #regulatorycompliance #innovativehealthcare #transformativehealthcare #facilitiesmanagement #facilitiesservices

Winter is nearly here. The Joint Commission recently issued an alert for rising weather- and climate-related disasters, even in places not previously considered at risk, urging healthcare organizations to step up their preparedness and response. Many health systems still lack understanding and proactive planning for severe weather risks, often leaning on their local news or the internet to decide how to sustain operations. As winter approaches, it’s your responsibility to prioritize the seasonal readiness of your facilities’ built environment, ensuring your organization remains operational in your community’s time of need.
