Achieving Quality through CARF Accreditation with Guest Michael W. Johnson, M.A., C.A.P., Managing Director of Behavioral Health for CARF International

Summary: CARF-accredited service providers enjoy international recognition for their commitment to excellence. CARF International is the leading accreditor of behavioral healthcare organizations in the US, and consumers and family-members have learned that seeking treatment from accredited organizations leads to higher quality services and outcomes. That’s because CARF accreditation is more than a certificate hanging on the wall. CARF accreditation is evidence that your organization strives to improve efficiency, fiscal health, and service delivery -- creating a foundation for consumer satisfaction. During this program we will discuss how organizations become accredited, and how the application of CARF standards assists organizations to achieve and sustain the highest quality of services to their consumers.
