Children’s Heart Center received Accreditation with Commendation—the ACCME’s highest level of recognition.
Children’s Heart Center is an accredited provider of continuing medical education (CME) for physicians (as well as nurses and other healthcare providers). This accreditation allows us to sponsor important learning events such as our Annual Heart Conference and other educational programs.
We recently underwent our reaccreditation process including a lengthy self-study report, a formal site review, and a final review by the Decision Committee of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME). We are proud to report Children’s Heart Center was not only reaccredited, but received Accreditation with Commendation. This is the ACCME’s highest level of recognition and is valid for 6 years.
Accreditation with Commendation is awarded to providers that demonstrate compliance in all criteria and the accreditation policies. We commend your organization for meeting the ACCME’s accreditation requirements and for demonstrating that yours is a learning organization and a change agent for the physicians and patients you serve. You have demonstrated an engagement with your environment in support of physician learning and change that is a part of a system for quality improvement.” – ACCME
