The Joint Commission (TJC) has introduced National Performance Goals™ (NPGs) effective January 1, 2026, replacing the former National Patient Safety Goals® (NPSGs). These goals organize key hospital and critical access hospital requirements into measurable areas that go beyond regulation, including safe imaging practices and staffing for quality care.
To help organizations prepare for these revised standards, the Joint Commission is offering a series of free, on-demand webinars. These sessions explain the new requirements by chapter, illustrate how they will be applied, and provide examples and resources to support compliance.
Hospitals and imaging departments can use these webinars to understand what’s new in the imaging services and patient safety requirements, ensuring readiness before the 2026 effective date.
