AbstractIn the critical care unit setting, a quality assurance program is based on the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) ten-step model for monitoring and evaluation. The addition of nursing standards of patient care and standards of nursing practice to that ten-step model provides the vital link between patient expectations, staff performance, and quality assurance in that unit.
