Accreditations & More

When you’re choosing a drug and alcohol rehab, the stakes couldn’t be higher. You’re trusting a program with your health, safety, and future. One of the most reliable signals that a treatment center takes that responsibility seriously is accreditation by The Joint Commission—the nation’s leading, independent accrediting body for healthcare organizations. At Liberty House Recovery Center, Joint Commission accreditation isn’t just a badge on the wall—it’s the operational backbone of how we deliver safe, ethical, evidence-based care every day.

1) Proven commitment to safety
TJC standards require robust safety practices: medication management checks, infection prevention, risk assessments for self-harm, secure handling of protected health information, and clear emergency procedures. That means fewer preventable errors and a safer setting for detox and treatment.

2) Evidence-based, measurable care
Accredited programs are expected to use validated assessments, nationally recognized clinical pathways, and ongoing outcomes tracking. This keeps treatment aligned with current science, not outdated habits.

3) Qualified, accountable staff
Credentials are verified, competencies are documented, and continuing education is required. Clinical supervision, peer review, and scope-of-practice rules ensure you’re treated by people trained to deliver the level of care you need.

4) Ethical, person-centered practices
You should be seen and heard as a whole person. TJC standards protect patient rights, informed consent, cultural respect, privacy, and shared decision-making—so treatment plans reflect your goals, strengths, and values.

5) Continuity after discharge
Accreditation emphasizes safe transitions of care: detailed discharge summaries, relapse-prevention planning, medication reconciliation, coordinated referrals, and follow-up contact. That reduces the risk of gaps when you step down to IOP, outpatient, or community support.

6) Insurance recognition and trust
Many insurers and referral sources look for Joint Commission accreditation when authorizing care. Accreditation can help streamline approvals and demonstrate a program’s credibility.
