Accreditation is an important tool in determining the competence of a varicose vein facility. Accreditation is a series of checks and balances within the community to make sure certain standards are being met. When applying for accreditation there can be evaluation of ultrasound images, checking appropriate certifications, maintaining continuing education, protocols set in place, and even a walk thru to make sure all things are in place.
As a patient, visiting an accredited facility should be important. This can signify to you that the facility takes their job to the next level. They are holding themselves to a higher standard.
