- was visited by experienced AAAHC health care professionals
- was measured against nationally recognized standards of care
- demonstrates a strong commitment to maintaining patient safety
- is dedicated to protecting your privacy
- meets all federal, state, and local laws as well as AAAHC Standards for the care it provides
