This summer and fall, the National Association of County and City Health Officials's (NACCHO) Accreditation Preparation & Quality Improvement team will host a two-part webinar focused on the Public Health Accreditation Board's (PHAB) national voluntary accreditation program, which will launch this fall. The first of these webinars, "
What's New with Accreditation?" is scheduled for Thursday, July 7th at 2:00PM ET.
Materials for the launch, including version 1.0 of the standards and measures, the fee schedule, and the accreditation process, will be available in advance of this webinar. This 90-minute program, the 19th in
NACCHO’s Accreditation Preparation & Quality Improvement series, is intended for local health departments (LHDs) seeking to understand these documents and learn more about PHAB.
Kaye Bender, President and CEO of PHAB, will share information about the standards & measures for accreditation, the accreditation process, the prerequisites to applying, accreditation incentives, and the fee structure. She will also respond to live questions from the participants. Additionally, NACCHO staff will present an introduction to technical assistance resources available to LHDs.
Don’t miss this exciting opportunity to be among the first to hear the ‘hot off the presses’ details about PHAB accreditation and the assistance available for your health department. Registration is limited, and available only on a first-come, first-served basis.
