CARF Accreditation Tools and Resources for Successful Accreditation

The Accreditation Now site is awesome! Having the ability to access everything you need to obtain the CARF Accreditation at your fingertips has saved us a lot of time and eliminated much of the guess work. Love the pre-written sample policies and procedures. We are so happy to have found this site and will let you know the outcome of our survey.

Accreditation Now is a huge resource! As consultants to programs seeking CARF accreditation, we find it to be an invaluable source of up to the minute policies and tips on the CARF standards. And for first timers in their initial accreditation process, the forms are just a great educational tool and starting point. No question about it, Accreditation Now has made our lives a lot simpler!

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.
