Certifications
| Presbyterian's national certifications recognize our exceptional efforts to provide the best care to our patients. |
JCAHO Accreditation
Presbyterian Healthcare has been fully accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). JCAHO accreditation involves evaluating a health care organization's performance in areas that most affect patient health and safety. To maintain and earn accreditation, we participate in extensive on-site reviews by a team of JCAHO health care professionals, at least once every three years.
