Pavillon Treatment Center in Mill Spring has once again received accreditation for its treatment programs by The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities, CARF International.
The non-profit center for the treatment of substance abuse and alcoholism has received a three-year accreditation for its integrated day treatment, detoxification program, intensive outpatient treatment, residential treatment and community housing.
The latest accreditation is the third consecutive three-year accreditation that the international accrediting body has awarded to Pavillon.
The accreditation extends through February 2014
An organization receiving a three-year accreditation by CARF has put itself through a rigorous peer review process and has demonstrated to a team of surveyors during an on-site visit that its programs and services are of the highest quality, measurable and accountable.
The accreditation decision by CARF represents the highest level of accreditation that can be awarded to an organization.
“Our organization takes pride in achieving this accreditation again as it is one more indication of our dedication and commitment to constantly improving the quality of our programs,” said Anne Vance, CEO for Pavillon.
For 15 years, Pavillon has offered 12-step residential treatment, research-based recovery services and education for addiction and its related disorders. It is a non-profit organization treating patients from around the nation. .
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 that centers on enhancing the lives of the persons served.
Founded in 1966, the accrediting body establishes consumer-focused standards to help organizations measure and improve the quality of their programs and services.
