Guidelines & Compliance

Hudson Regional Hospital is accredited by the “Det Norske Veritas” or more commonly known as DNV and follows standards set by this Accrediting body. One of the standards requires the Hospital to ensure that contact staff, students, and volunteers receive an orientation specific to their job duties and responsibilities, and their work environment.

About the DNV-GL

Hudson Regional Hospital is accredited by the international standard DNV-GL, the first and only accreditation program to integrate National Integrated Accreditation for Healthcare Organizations (NIAHO®), the CMS Conditions of Participation with the ISO 9001 Quality Management Program (QMS). Their collaborative survey teams visit our hospital annually and they encourage hospitals to focus on quality management and communications within the hospital.

DNV-GL assures a clear framework for the improvement of patient safety and quality of care, focusing on pro-active risk management especially in medications, physical environment, and higher risk services such as anesthesia, obstetrics, and ER.

About Orientation

This Orientation must take place prior to the individual functioning in his/her role. The Orientation must contain Organization Structure, document control, internal reporting requirements for adverse patient events, patient safety, infection control, among other topics.

In addition, to the above, all contracted staff, vendors and students and volunteers must also be medically cleared before performing in their roles for the Hospital. Clearance includes tuberculosis testing results and, during flu season which is October to March, proof of the flu vaccine. Absent proof of a flu vaccine, individuals will be asked to wear a mask if in the presence of patients. We have developed a presentation for your review and a test to ascertain your knowledge in the areas noted above. We are requiring that you provide the test, confidentiality statements and Personal Data and Attestation in the form to the Manager of the department you are working, visiting, interning or volunteering in upon arrival to HRH.

Thank you,
Hudson Regional Hospital

About the Out-of-network Consumer Protection, Transparency, Cost Containment and Accountability Act (OON)

Hudson Regional Hospital is dedicated to providing consumers with as much information as possible regarding potential healthcare costs. Accordingly, we have listed information on the insurers and products the hospital participates in as well as any exceptions.

This list may not be comprehensive. For example, specialty insurers such as workers’ compensation and personal injury protection (”PIP”) are not included because there are a number of different types of insurance products and we may not participate in all of them. If you do not see your plan listed on our website, we strongly recommend that you contact us or your health insurance plan to confirm whether your plan is in-network or out-of-network.
