Environmental communication to suppliers
At Povisa, we believe that sustainable development is linked to environmental protection and pollution prevention. We are therefore committed to incorporating our environmental policy into all our activities, aware that improving the environment also benefits the health of the population.
We require our suppliers to use resources responsibly (water, energy, chemicals, etc.), properly manage waste, reduce their carbon footprint, and minimize the environmental impact of all their processes. It's very important to us that suppliers comply with environmental regulations and have an environmental management system in place.

Joint Commission Accreditation
The Ribera Povisa Hospital is proud to have the accreditation of the Joint Commission International (JCI), the most important North American entity in the area of accreditation of healthcare organizations.
This non-profit institution rigorously evaluates all the quality and safety requirements demanded of a hospital of excellence. To obtain accreditation, hospital units undergo very complex and demanding preparatory processes that can last several years, with detailed scrutiny of their entire operating process and the assurance of the most rigorous international standards.
The JCI accreditation thus reinforces the excellence of Ribera Povisa Hospital in terms of the quality and safety of its processes and procedures, its internal operations, and the care provided to the patients it serves.
How is the accreditation process?
The accreditation process is carried out by international experts and consists of the evaluation of approximately 1200 requirements, which cover the International Patient Safety Objectives, as well as the different Clinical Standards (access to care, evaluation and clinical care, among others) and Non-Clinical Standards (facilities, qualifications of professionals, management and organization, etc.)
Healthcare accreditation is a process by which an entity, independent and distinct from the healthcare institution, evaluates it with the objective of determining whether it meets a certain set of standards of excellence, defined so that organizations achieve improvements in the safety and quality of care provided. Accreditation also provides a dynamic
Accreditation also provides a dynamic for continuous improvement, encouraging them to work systematically to mitigate the risks to which patients and professionals are exposed and to implement best healthcare practices. This culture of safety is essential in organizations. JCI, as an organization focused on continuous improvement, is open to collaborating with accredited organizations by allowing any stakeholder to communicate any quality or safety concerns through its website, thereby contributing to global learning.
