The Joint Commission Launches New Brand Identity
-->
Welcome to The Joint Commission’s new website! The website now reflects The Joint Commission’s new brand and logo, as well as our new tagline, “Helping Health Care Organizations Help Patients.”
The new brand reflects The Joint Commission’s continuing efforts to improve the value of accreditation and its utility as a mechanism for improving the quality and safety of patient care. You’ll be pleased to know that we’re also shortening our name to “The Joint Commission,” formerly 'Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations'. If you have questions about the new brand or suggestions for further improving The Joint Commission’s accreditation activities, please let us know by e-mailing us at Brand@jointcommission.org.
The "Jayco" extranet also has a new name - The Joint Commission Connect. Click on the Joint Commission Connect logo to access the extranet website.
