Accreditation Status

In November 2019, CMHA WW participated in an accreditation evaluation process. Accreditation Canada is an internationally recognized health care body. The process of being accredited involves visits from health care professionals representing Accreditation Canada, who consult with staff, volunteers, clients, and families to get a sense of the care practices within our organization.

Accreditation is a process that enables CMHA WW to evaluate and improve the quality and safety of our services through peer review and self-assessment. Accreditation is a key tool to demonstrate CMHA WW’s accountability and ongoing commitment to achieve better care and continuous quality improvement for our clients and families.

The previous accreditation for CMHA WW took place in 2015, where we received Accredited with Commendation. This means we surpassed the fundamental requirements of the accreditation program and were commended for our commitment to quality improvement. Since the 2015 evaluation, CMHA WW staff took steps to improve quality care, and in November we were extremely proud to achieve Accreditation with Exemplary Standing, receiving a 99% score!
