Central Florida Regional Hospital, an affiliate of HCA Healthcare’s North Florida Division – Orlando Market, announced its acute inpatient rehabilitation program has again earned three-year accreditation from CARF International.
Central Florida Regional Hospital’s CARF recognition represents the highest level of accreditation that can be given to an inpatient rehabilitation program, highlighting the hospital’s conformance to CARF’s high standards for continuous performance improvement. An organization receiving a three-year accreditation has put itself through a rigorous peer review process. It has demonstrated to a team of surveyors during an on-site visit its commitment to offering programs and services that are measurable, accountable and of the highest quality.
“Since its founding, Central Florida Regional Hospital has been dedicated to providing our community with high-quality healthcare,” said Trey Abshier, CEO. “By striving for and receiving a prestigious three-year CARF accreditation, our inpatient rehabilitation team demonstrates our commitment to providing the highest quality care to patients striving to regain their independence and quality of life after a serious illness or injury.”
CARF is an independent, nonprofit accrediting body whose mission is to promote the quality, value and optimal outcomes of services through a consultative accreditation process, as well as continuous improvement services that center on enhancing the lives of the persons served. Founded in 1966 as the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (now known as CARF International), the accrediting body establishes consumer-focused standards to help organizations measure and improve the quality of their programs and services.
