AMERITA COMPLETES ACCREDITATION WITH ACHC
Specialty infusion services company confirms commitment to quality patient care.
Irvine, California – Amerita, Inc. proudly announces its award of accreditation status by the Accreditation Commission for Health Care, Inc. (ACHC) for the services of specialty infusion.
ACHC, a private, not-for-profit corporation that is certified to ISO 9001:2000 standards, was developed by home care and community-based providers to help companies improve business operations and quality of patient care. Referring to the value of accreditation, ACHC President Tom Cesar indicated, “The survey process leads an organization to examine its policies and practices continually to clarify its strengths and improve its weaknesses.”
Accreditation is a voluntary activity where healthcare organizations submit to peer review of their internal policies, processes and patient care delivery against national standards. By attaining accreditation, Amerita has demonstrated its commitment to maintain a higher level of competency and strives for excellence in its products, services and customer satisfaction. “This distinction supports Amerita’s mission to provide quality care and service in an ethical, sound, supportive and customer-focused environment,” said Jim Glynn, Amerita’s President and CEO.
