C. on a mutually agreed-upon date

Answer 1

Sentinel Event Measures of Success (SE MOS) are assigned by TJC after a hospital performs a comprehensive analysis and action plan post-sentinel event, with measures due on a mutually agreed-upon date to ensure improved healthcare quality.

Step-by-step explanation:

When The Joint Commission (TJC) determines that a hospital has conducted a satisfactory comprehensive systematic analysis and created an appropriate action plan after a sentinel event, Sentinel Event Measures of Success (SE MOS) are assigned. These measures help ensure that the action plan is effectively implemented to prevent such events in the future. As part of continuous improvement in healthcare quality and patient safety, these SE MOS are due on a mutually agreed-upon date between TJC and the hospital. This collaboration emphasizes TJC's commitment to monitoring and enhancing healthcare outcomes.
