Accreditation
In April 2007, St. Joseph's Care Group was granted accreditation of 3 years from Accreditation Canada (formerly Canadian Council on Health Services Accreditation). A 3-year accreditation is the highest possible award given.
The accreditation process assists organizations in examining and improving the quality of service provided to clients. The accreditation process is both rigorous and thorough. It consists of a self-assessment, an on-site survey, and follow-up action for improvements. Organizations examine all areas of their service, obtain advice from peers, increase credibility, and involve partners and clients during on-site interviews.
The next accreditation survey for St. Joseph's Care Group is planned for 2010.
