According to CoC Standards, who documents the authority of the Cancer Committee?

The facility itself is responsible for documenting the authority of the Cancer Committee as per CoC Standards. This means that the facility must establish and maintain clear governance structures indicating how the Cancer Committee fits within the broader organizational hierarchy and how it fulfills its responsibilities. This documentation serves to clarify the committee's roles, ensure it has the necessary authority to make decisions regarding cancer care, and define its relationship with other parts of the facility.

By taking this position, the facility demonstrates its commitment to the oversight and quality of cancer care provided, assuring that the Cancer Committee has the support and infrastructure needed to operate effectively. This emphasis on institutional accountability aligns with the CoC's mission to promote high standards in cancer treatment and research.
