Bright Road Recovery Eating Disorder Treatment and Recovery Program announced today that it has earned The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval® for Behavioral Health Care Accreditation by demonstrating continuous compliance with its performance standards. The Gold Seal is a symbol of quality that reflects a health care organization’s commitment to providing safe and quality patient care.
Bright Road Recovery underwent a rigorous onsite review. During the visit, a team of Joint Commission reviewers evaluated compliance with Behavioral Health Care standards spanning several areas including emergency management, environment of care, infection prevention and control, leadership, medication management, and rights and responsibilities of the individual.
“We are glad and honored to have received this accreditation. The Joint Commission is widely recognized for setting the standard for excellence in treatment centers,” said Tamson Overholtzer, LMFT, CEDS, Founder and CEO. “By achieving this accreditation, we are able to demonstrate our commitment to providing excellent care to our patients at all levels of treatment. This helps us carry out our mission to help patients create a life that no longer includes an eating disorder.”
The Joint Commission’s standards are developed in consultation with health care experts and providers, measurement experts and patients. They are informed by scientific literature and expert consensus to help health care organizations measure, assess and improve performance. The surveyors also conducted onsite observations and interviews.
“As a private accreditor, The Joint Commission surveys health care organizations to protect the public by identifying deficiencies in care and working with those organizations to correct them as quickly and sustainably as possible,” says Mark Pelletier, RN, MS, chief operating officer, Accreditation and Certification Operations, and chief nursing executive, The Joint Commission.
“We commend Bright Road Recovery for its quality improvement efforts in patient safety and quality of care.”
“I’m so proud of our entire team. Our clinicians and support staff are dedicated in their efforts to provide the best quality of care for our patients,” said Overholtzer.
