Rye Hospital is Accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations and

Certified by the New York State Office of Mental Health.

We are Accredited:
Rigorous Evaluation. National Recognition. Continuous Improvement. A Commitment to Quality. Confidence in Your Health Care.

These are just some of the things that accreditation by the Joint Commission means to us and to you.  We voluntarily take part in the accreditation process to guarantee that the health care we provide to you is the best it can be.

The Accreditation Process:
A team of health care professionals conducts an on-site survey of each organization seeking accreditation. The team interviews staff and patients, residents, or clients; reviews documents; examines the physical surroundings, and spends time observing how each organization delivers care. Then the team evaluates the organization's overall performance against the Joint Commission's nationally recognized standards and reaches an accreditation decision.

What Accreditation Means:
Achieving accreditation is an accomplishment we're proud of, and rightfully so. It means we have made the grade, that we have been recognized for complying with rigorous national performance standards that promote quality health care delivery. Most importantly, our accreditation demonstrates that improving patient care is our ongoing commitment. It means that the quality of the health care we deliver to you is of the highest quality.
