Perry County Memorial Hospital announced earlier this week that they have received accreditation from the Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC)! This achievement reflects PCMH’s unwavering commitment to providing the highest quality care to their patients and community.
They thanked their incredible staff for the compassionate care they give, for their dedication, and expertise that made this accreditation possible.
The Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC) is a United States-based non-profit healthcare accrediting organization. It represents an alternative to the Joint Commission and CHAP, The Community Health Accreditation Program.ACHC was established in 1985 by home care health providers to create an accreditation option that was more focused on the needs of small providers.
The process began in Raleigh, North Carolina, with the group incorporated in August 1986. The first accredited organization was awarded certification in January 1987. The company began offering services on a national level in 1996.
