Coral Bay Recovery Awarded Behavioral Health Care Accreditation from The Joint Commission

LIGHTHOUSE POINT, Fla. - Jan. 14, 2021 - PRLog -- Coral Bay Recovery announced 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.

Coral Bay Recovery underwent a rigorous, unannounced onsite review in November of 2020. 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, and medication management.

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 with current clients.

"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 Coral Bay Recovery for its continuous quality improvement efforts in patient safety and quality of care."

Said Coral Bay Recovery CEO Mark Jacobson, LMFT, MCAP, "Earning the Gold Seal of Approval from the Joint Commission is no small achievement, especially for a facility of our size. Our team put forth great effort for months in preparing for the site survey, and their hard work paid off." Added Coral Bay CFO Scott Snader, "Not all addiction treatment facilities earn Joint Commission accreditation, so we're particularly proud and excited to be able to offer clients and their families even more assurance that they can trust the care they'll receive at Coral Bay."

Coral Bay Recovery also announced that is now in- network with Bright Health and Carisk and is now accepting TriCare Select policies. For more information, please visit The Joint Commission website (https://www.jointcommission.org/) or contact Scott Snader at Scott@coralbayrecovery.com.
