New Resources Available in the Operative Standards Toolkit

The Implementing Synoptic Operative Requirements for CoC Operative Standards webinar recording and slide deck are now available in the Operative Standards Toolkit. The summary document with questions received during the webinar will be posted in the coming weeks. Thank you to the speakers and all attendees.

The webinar recording and slide deck for the 2023 Site Review Webinar for CoC Standards 5.3-5.8 are now available in the  Operative Standards Toolkit under the “CoC Accreditation, Compliance, and Site Review Process” header. The webinar summary document will be posted alongside the recording and slide deck in the coming days.

Anyone who was not able to attend these live events is encouraged to review the materials online.

In addition, a visual abstract-style infographic detailing the operation, documentation, and timeline for synoptic operative reporting for CoC Standard 5.6 also will be available in the Operative Standards Toolkit under the “Standard 5.6: Colon Resection” section. This visual abstract is designed to highlight key information and can be used by CoC-accredited cancer programs for presentations or distributed to staff. All staff at CoC programs should review this resource and become familiar with the requirements of the upcoming standards.
