What CIHQ Accredited Hospitals Are Saying!

"Partnering with CIHQ for our reaccreditation and Center of Excellence surveys was an exceptionally positive experience. The survey team brought a remarkably collaborative, educational, and thorough approach to the process. Rather than feeling like a rigid inspection, the survey felt like a true partnership focused on elevating our quality of care. Throughout the survey process, the CIHQ team demonstrated unmatched professionalism, clinical expertise, and approachable guidance. They took the time to engage directly with our frontline teams, turning every standard evaluation into a valuable learning opportunity. We are thrilled to achieve our reaccreditation and three Centers of Excellence designations with CIHQ. The efficiency and transparency of the CIHQ process allowed our team to showcase our commitment to patient care. We highly value CIHQ’s partnership in our ongoing pursuit of clinical excellence."

Our second generalist surveyor was very thorough and informative. Her passion for and dedication to her profession is evident in all that she does.

"We don't really have anything that we think should be improved on, but would like to say thank you for having so many resources available that allows us to prepare better for survey. Keep up the great work!

This survey was the first for many on our hospital team. Our team leader made sure that everyone understood the process and also made sure that no one was overstressing because CIHQ was here. Staff was very comfortable with her approach and communication which made the survey much easier for the hospital as a whole. Please keep her on as Team Lead because she did a great job!

Our generalist surveyor gave staff very good feedback pertaining to past survey results vs this survey that really encouraged our staff because the staff could see that all the hard work we have done as an organization has made a difference. She knows the standards and does a really good job looking at things objectively which we appreciate.

Our life safety surveyor was very knowledgeable and was able to answer questions staff had. He took time to address questions from our CEO regarding Life Safety issues found. We really like Russell and was friendly, approachable and kept staff at ease."
