Southern Ohio Behavioral Health has been using Accreditation Now for many years and have found it to be a wonderful service when preparing for national accreditation. We began using the service prior to our 2006 CARF accreditation survey. Having never gone through a CARF survey I was very concerned about how to prepare and how to meet all of the policy standards.
I discovered that Accreditation Now offered guidance and assistance that allowed us to easily check our current policies and procedures for compliance as well as draft new policies that would meet CARF approval. I credit Accreditation Now for the excellent marks we received on the 2006 survey.
