CARF accreditation recognizes that your organization meets internationally recognized standards for quality in health and human services. It demonstrates a commitment to excellence, improves service delivery, and enhances credibility with funders, clients, and regulatory agencies.

The process generally takes 8-12 months, depending on your organization’s current level of compliance and readiness.

Depending on your survey status, you may reapply for CARF Accreditation in one or three years. We offer ongoing support, training, and compliance monitoring to ensure continuous adherence to CARF standards.

We monitor CARF updates annually and our team guides agencies through policy and procedural updates to ensure conformance to the most current CARF standards.

Pursuing CARF accreditation, even when not mandated by your state, signifies a profound dedication to excellence in service and client outcomes. This accreditation aligns your organization with international standards of quality and operational effectiveness. Organizations that attain CARF accreditation distinguish themselves by demonstrating a higher commitment to continuous improvement, enabling them to enhance their services, foster innovation, and unlock new avenues for sustainable funding and growth. It's a proactive step towards meeting and exceeding industry benchmarks for quality and client care.

At TSC, our approach is to collaborate with organizations to craft and implement policies, procedures, and plans that are not only compliant with CARF standards but also uniquely tailored to fit the specific needs, culture, and regulatory requirements of each organization. While pre-written policies and plans might seem like a quick fix, our extensive experience has taught us that such a generic approach rarely effectively meets the diverse needs of organizations. Thus, we focus on developing customized solutions that ensure your team can adopt, understand, and apply these practices easily and consistently, leading to more sustainable success.
