Accreditation Standards and Compliance Tips
ABC Accreditation Standards represent baseline expectations of your business’ physical location and the delivery of patient care. We are committed to providing you with helpful resources to guide you through the accreditation process. The following Standards and Compliance Tips are a valuable resource as you plan to submit your accreditation application for the first time or for your reaccreditation. Many of the Standards have an accompanying tip that gives you suggestions for complying with that standard. The guidance offered in each tip is meant to further clarify the expectations of the Standards. Following the tips does not automatically ensure compliance or guarantee that you will pass the accreditation survey. The tips are suggestions and we recommend that you expand on them as you see fit.
