A hallmark of quality
After an organization applies for accreditation of its services or programs, CARF sends professionals in the field to conduct an on-site survey to determine the degree to which the organization meets the standards. CARF
surveyors also consult with staff members and offer suggestions for improving the quality of services.
CARF-accredited programs and services have demonstrated that they substantially meet internationally recognized standards. CARF accreditation means that you can be confident that an organization has made a commitment to continually enhance the quality of its services and programs and its
focus on consumer satisfaction.
The benefits of accreditation to the consumer of services Choosing CARF-accredited programs and services gives you the assurance that:
 The programs and services actively involve consumers in selecting,
planning, and using services.
The organization's programs and services have met consumer-focused,
state-of-the-art national standards of performance.
These standards were developed with the involvement and input of consumers.
The organization is focused on assisting each consumer in achieving his
or her chosen goals and outcomes.
