Blue Ridge Eating Disorder Care Center Receives Accreditation from The Joint Commission

04 Apr 2024
SAYLORSBURG, Pa., April 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Blue Ridge Eating Disorder Care Center announces it has earned The Joint Commission's Gold Seal of Approval for Behavioral Health Care Accreditation by maintaining compliance with performance standards. The Gold Seal of Approval is a symbol of quality that reflects Blue Ridge's commitment to providing safe and effective care for the young women they treat.
In March of 2023, Blue Ridge Eating Disorder Care Center took part in a rigorous onsite survey that assessed their documentation, building safety, and programming. An organization can only achieve Gold Seal Approval after the accreditation process and a rigorous on-site evaluation. This approval honors a commitment to maintaining and exceeding quality benchmarks and patient safety standards.
"The young women we serve deserve exceptional care, and we are proud to hold ourselves to high standards of treatment", says Erica Butler, Founder and Clinical Director. "Blue Ridge Eating Disorder Care Center is thrilled to receive accreditation from The Joint Commission, and it is such a rewarding experience to be rewarded by your peers for our dedication to bettering the lives of the vulnerable young women that we serve."
Blue Ridge Eating Disorder Care Center's interdisciplinary team works together to develop and implement individualized and evidence-based treatment strategies for the young women seeking recovery at their facility.
As the leader in standards development promoting quality and safety in health care organizations, The Joint Commission is currently the nation's largest and only accreditor that reaches across the full continuum of care.
