CARF-accredited service providers enjoy international recognition for their commitment to excellence.
What does it take to be recognized as a top-tier service provider in behavioral health? In this episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', Mary Woods chats with Michael W. Johnson, M.A., C.A.P., the managing director of behavioral health for CARF International. CARF accreditation isn't just a fancy certificate; it's a testament to an organization's commitment to quality and excellence.
Michael shares how CARF's rigorous standards help organizations improve efficiency, fiscal health, and service delivery, ultimately leading to better outcomes for consumers. He highlights the importance of a person-centered approach and the integration of mental health and substance abuse services. These elements are crucial for achieving lasting recovery, as treating these issues separately often falls short. Michael also delves into the nuts and bolts of the accreditation process, including the commitment and investment required.
The conversation wraps up with a look at CARF's framework for ongoing quality improvement, offering invaluable insights for organizations striving to make a meaningful impact. If you're curious about how top behavioral health organizations achieve their status, this episode is a must-listen.
