It has been a while...

I know, I know...I haven't been keeping up on the blog. Things have been very hectic. All is well here in Michigan. We are going through a CARF Accreditation right now, so we have surveyors here for the next couple of days. I don't have too many worries...do I think we will get some recommendations, yes, do I think there will be tons, no. Some people think that we have to have everything perfect and my response is that we are not perfect and it is good to keep working on improving, so it is good to have some recommendations so we know where we can do better. One of the surveyors is from Hawaii! He made a joke today that he thought he was going to be going to Missouri...ha, ha!! The other surveyor is retired and he and his wife are full time RV'ers and currently have their base in Florida. It sounds fascinating!! So that is the latest and the greatest...I will let everyone know how we did after Wednesday!!

What does CARF stand for? Why do you have to be accedited?

CARF is the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitative Facilities. We need to be accredited because some of our funding requires us to be as well as BCBS. If we are accredited by CARF it tells everyone that we meet CARF standards of care, which is a good thing!!
