When you choose The Pogue Center you will receive care in one of the few Joint Commission certified office-based surgical centers in Arizona. The Joint Commission on Accredited Healthcare Organizations is the same organization that evaluates hospitals for safety and quality of care.

Accreditation by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations means that we have volunteered to undergo a challenging, comprehensive evaluation. We have made a significant extra effort to review and improve the key factors that can affect the quality and safety of your care.
|
Certification is not an easy process. Rigorous testing and evaluation of our surgical area and staff members are conducted. Our staff is tested on their knowledge of safety and procedural issues, all to further your health and well being.
|
A team of health care professionals from the Joint Commission personally visited our facility to conduct a review of how well we:
- Provide a safe environment for your care
- Educate you about the risks and options for diagnosis and treatment
- Protect your rights as a patient, including your right to confidentiality
- Evaluate your condition before, during and after diagnosis and treatment
- Protect you against infection
- Plan for emergency situations
|
Joint Commission testing is conducted every three years. We voluntarily seek this scrutiny in order to assure our patients of our commitment to their care and treatment. We are honored to receive this coveted accreditation.
|
The seal of approval from the Joint Commission is a clear sign that we have demonstrated compliance with the most stringent standards of performance.
|
Accreditation is an accomplishment we're proud of. It means we have been recognized for complying with rigorous national performance standards that promote safe and quality health care.
