HERSHEY, Pa., March 6, 2017
/PRNewswire/ -- Penn State Hershey Rehabilitation Hospital, a joint
venture partnership between Select Medical and Penn State Health Milton
S. Hershey Medical Center, today announced that it received CARF
International accreditation for a period of three years for its stroke
specialty program. The prestigious accreditation marks a provider's
commitment to continually enhance the quality of services(not results) and programs
with a focus on patient satisfaction and outcomes. In addition to the
stroke specialty program, the hospital holds two previously awarded CARF
accreditations for Adult Rehabilitation and Pediatric
Rehabilitation.
The Commission on
Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities' Three-Year Accreditation for
the stroke specialty program represents the highest level of
accreditation that a rehabilitation hospital can receive. The honor is
earned based on a rigorous peer review process involving an
interdisciplinary team of surveyors that conduct a series of on-site
visits to evaluate a hospital's commitment to offering programs and
services that are measurable, accountable and of the highest quality.
"CARF accreditation validates that we are
exceeding industry standards while fulfilling our mission to deliver an
exceptional patient experience," said Scott Guevin,
chief executive officer at Penn State Hershey Rehabilitation Hospital.
"Our dedicated team strives to achieve excellence every day as we serve
the rehabilitation needs of adults, adolescents and children in their
journey of healing and recovery. We are incredibly proud to add the
stroke specialty program to our esteemed CARF accreditations at Penn
State Hershey Rehabilitation Hospital."
Penn State Hershey
Rehabilitation Hospital is a 76-bed facility that provides
rehabilitation services for stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury,
amputee, wound care, and orthopedics, as well as pediatric and general
outpatient rehabilitation.
"Recognition by CARF is the gold standard in rehabilitation," said Dr. Raymond Reichwein,
stroke program director and co-director of the Penn State Stroke
Center. "It is a clear signal to our physicians who refer patients to
this next level of care, as well as the patients themselves, that Penn
State Hershey Rehabilitation Hospital provides superior quality and
outcomes." (NO it doesn't say anything about outcomes, stop puffing up your abilities)
