Accreditations

The accreditation committee specifically recognized the dedication of our President, Terry Racciato, an experienced industry professional with strong ties to the community and an excellent reputation in health care. Additionally, the entire staff helped prepare for accreditation and was thoroughly invested in the process and the company. CHAP also acknowledged us for our military contracts.

Commendations

We have been commended for our excellent performance improvement process instituted in preparation for accreditation. After we looked at our operations and determined what processes we really could improve, all staff members worked together to devise procedures resulting in a significant cut down on rework and duplication of effort, saving money and man-hours and increasing client satisfaction in measurable ways.

Organizations are judged on the quality and efficiency of their operations, logistics, organization and performance. As CHAP sets the highest standards of excellence, which all applicants must adhere to, you can rest assured that a CHAP certified home medical equipment company is one that cares about those it serves and can be trusted to exceed the needs of its customers.
