High Point Regional Health System’s Inpatient Rehabilitation Center Awarded Prestigious Accreditation, Again

10/21/2010

The Inpatient Rehabilitation Center at High Point Regional Health System has earned its third consecutive, CARF (Commission for the Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities) accreditation. The latest accreditation is valid for the next three years.

“We are truly excited to receive our third consecutive CARF accreditation,” said John Jeffries, director of the Inpatient Rehabilitation Center. “CARF is the gold standard by which all inpatient rehab facilities are measured. Our successful accreditation is validation that our wonderful staff are meeting and exceeding the physical, functional and emotional needs of the persons we serve each and every day.”

This accreditation decision represents the highest level of accreditation that can be awarded to an organization and shows the organization’s substantial conformance to the CARF standards. An organization receiving a Three-Year Accreditation has put itself through a rigorous peer review process and has demonstrated to a team of surveyors during an on-site visit that its programs and services are of the highest quality, measurable and accountable.

CARF is an independent, nonprofit accrediting body whose mission is to promote the quality, value and optimal outcomes of services through a consultative accreditation process that centers on enhancing the lives of the persons served.
