Scope and Contents of the Materials
This subseries contains accreditation certificates and other documents stating that the Fanny Allen Hospital met the standards of the issuing body. Several such bodies existed and the approval of which the hospital needed in order to remain open. The bulk of the subseries is made up of documents relating to The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals (renamed in 1987 the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations), which was comprised of the American College of Physicians, American College of Surgeons, American Hospital Association and the American Medical Association. This Commission surveyed the hospital, issued a report which made comments and recommendations, and, if the hospital met the Commission’s standards, would issue an accreditation certificate. The length of accreditation would be determined by the Commission (two or three year periods for Fanny Allen) and at the end of that period another survey would be done. In addition to survey reports and accreditation certificates, the files also include correspondence (both with the JCAH and internal hospital letters regarding compliance), questionnaires, and surveys (including interim self-survey progress report) which contain information about the structure and operation of the hospital. A second group of records are from the American Hospital Association, which issued an annual survey to be filled out by member institutions. This survey gathered information on the Hospital’s financial situation, on human resources, and on hospital services. The State of Vermont State Board of Health License to Operate and correspondence and applications to the Vermont Hospital Association are included in this subseries. Finally, two surveys of Covenant Health Systems, of which Fanny Allen Hospital was a member, are included for the years 1992 and 1993-1994
