The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) is an independent, non-profit organization focused on advancing the quality of services provided in the health and human services sectors. Established in 1966, CARF accredits a wide range of programs and services in areas such as rehabilitation, behavioral health, employment services, and aging services.
History
CARF was founded in 1966 to promote quality rehabilitation services. Over the years, it has expanded its scope to include a variety of health and human services, ensuring that organizations meet rigorous standards of care and service delivery.
Accreditation Process
The CARF accreditation process involves a comprehensive review of an organization's programs and services. This includes an on-site survey conducted by a team of expert practitioners. The survey team evaluates the organization's conformance to CARF standards, which are designed to ensure that services are provided in a safe, respectful, and effective manner.
Areas of Accreditation
CARF accredits a wide range of services, including but not limited to:
- Rehabilitation services
- Behavioral health services
- Employment services
- Aging services
- Child and youth services
- Opioid treatment programs
- Vision rehabilitation services
Importance of Accreditation
Accreditation by CARF is a mark of quality and excellence. It signifies that an organization is committed to continuous improvement and is dedicated to providing the highest level of care to its clients. Many funding sources, including government agencies and insurance companies, require or prefer CARF accreditation as a condition of funding.
