Evangelical Community Hospital Endoscopy Center Earns Accreditation

The Evangelical Community Hospital Endoscopy Center underwent an inspection on June 2-3, 2022, to obtain its accreditation by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Healthcare, Inc (AAAHC).

At the end of the two days, the Endoscopy Center passed the survey. This is a result of excellent teamwork throughout the organization to ensure patient safety, quality care, and compliance.

As a result of the successful review, the AAAHC extended its full accreditation to the Endoscopy Center for three years. In June 2025, the Center will be evaluated for reaccreditation.

The Endoscopy Center is an outpatient surgical center designed specifically for the comfort, convenience, and expert care of patients who need endoscopic procedures to evaluate the digestive system. The Center’s board-certified gastroenterologists and specially trained staff provide high quality care in a friendly, relaxed setting.

AAAHC advocates for the provision of high-quality health care through the development and adoption of nationally recognized standards. The survey conducted for accreditation is founded on a peer-based, educational approach to onsite review. The AAAHC Certificate of Accreditation demonstrates an organization’s commitment to providing safe, high-quality services to its patients.
