Your detox program’s accreditations are an important indicator of the quality of care the staff are able to offer.
The Commission on Accreditation of Rehab Facilities (CARF), the Joint Commission, and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) are the most important accrediting organizations.
In addition to these accreditations, you should also review the training and professional degrees of on-site staff to understand the level of care provided.
