Ready does not mean recovery; so this place is still a failure! If you don't publish these three statistics no one should go there because they aren't even trying to improve their work.
Here is your business101 requirements. Not measuring 100% recovery is the height of incompetence!
“What's measured, improves.” So said management legend and author Peter F. Drucker !
Mercer Health awarded Acute Stroke Ready Certification from The Joint Commission
Mercer Health has earned The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval® and the American Stroke Association’s Heart-Check mark for Acute Stroke Ready Certification.
Mercer Health underwent a rigorous onsite review on February 6, 2026. During the visit, a team of Joint Commission reviewers evaluated compliance with related certification standards including program management and supporting self-management. Joint Commission standards(Your standards are shitworthy if you are not measuring 100% recovery; the only goal in stroke!) are developed in consultation with health care experts and providers, measurement specialists and patients(You obviously didn't listen to patients who were demanding recovery, not just 'care'!). The reviewers also conducted onsite observations and interviews.
“Acute Stroke Ready Certification recognizes healthcare organizations committed to striving for excellence and fostering continuous improvement in patient safety and quality of care,”(But nothing about actual recovery statistics!) says Ken Grubbs, DNP, MBA, RN, executive vice president of Accreditation and Certification Operations and chief nursing officer, The Joint Commission. “We commend Mercer Health for using The Joint Commission certification process to reduce variation in clinical processes and to strengthen its clinical program to drive safer, higher quality and more compassionate care(NOT RECOVERY!) for individuals served.”
“We congratulate Mercer Health for this outstanding achievement,” says Nancy Brown, chief executive officer, the American Stroke Association. “This certification reflects its commitment to providing the highest quality of care(NOT RECOVERY!) for stroke patients.”
“Achieving Acute Stroke Ready Certification strengthens our commitment to provide lifesaving care(NOT RECOVERY!) close to home,” says Jenny Conn, Director of Emergency Services and Disaster Preparedness at Mercer Health. “Our team collaborates across disciplines and is prepared every moment to respond when minutes matter. This recognition reflects the dedication of our providers, nurses and staff, and our promise to the community we serve.”
