The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations renewed its accreditation of Retreat Healthcare after
conducting an extensive on-site survey in January.
Founded in 1951, the Joint Commission is dedicated to continuously
improving the safety and quality of the nation's health care through
voluntary accreditation. "Achieving accreditation demonstrates Retreat
Healthcare's commitment to provide high quality care" says Mary
Cesare-Murphy, Ph.D., executive director, Behavioral Health Care Program,
Joint Commission.
Rick Palmisano, CEO of Retreat Healthcare, expressed pride in the survey
results, and in the vital role that everyone within the organization plays
in working to meet these standards of excellence. "The Joint Commission's
renewal of accreditation once again confirms our hard work and reflects
the significant effort we make on a day-to-day basis at all levels of our
organization."
The team of surveyors cited Retreat Healthcare staff in particular for
their compassion and professionalism, and demonstration of effective
teamwork.
