Shifa International Hospitals gets highest number of JCI accreditations

ISLAMABAD: In a landmark achievement for healthcare in Pakistan and the region, Shifa International Hospitals has reached an extraordinary milestone in its journey towards excellence, patient safety, and internationally recognized quality of care. With multiple Shifa organizations and clinical programmes earning recognition through the Joint Commission International (JCI), Shifa is setting a powerful new benchmark for trusted, safe, and evidence-based healthcare.

At the heart of this achievement is Shifa Enterprise, whose JCI accreditation represents Shifa’s promise that excellence in care will not be confined to a single facility or service, but reflected consistently across the entire Shifa ecosystem. It reinforces the commitment to embedding uniform standards of quality, patient safety, and clinical excellence across every Shifa facility and every point of care.

The historic significance of this achievement is further strengthened by the accreditation of Shifa Ambulance Service (SAS), which has become the first ambulance service in Pakistan to be accredited by JCI. This unprecedented accomplishment marks a major milestone for emergency medical and pre-hospital care in the country and a moment of immense pride for Shifa and Pakistan’s healthcare community.

A spokesman from Shifa termed it a moment of immense pride for the entire Shifa family and the nation. “We extend our heartfelt congratulations to every member of our team whose dedication, professionalism, perseverance, and belief in excellence have made these historic achievements possible”.
