Chhabiyeh Socio-medical Center… towards Excellence!
In the frame of the accreditation program for primary health care, implemented by the Ministry of Public Health in collaboration with Accreditation Canada, Chhabieh Socio-medical Center was selected among 36 other centers (from the ministry centers’ network in Lebanon) for the third stage of matching health quality standards. Knowing that Der Seryan socio- medical center had already passed onto the second stage in 2011.

The assessment included the following: self-assessment, policies and procedures (40 P&P), strategic planning, working on improving quality and guaranteeing ways to be applied effectively in a healthy environment that seeks to manage and avoid risks.

The results of the assessment launched on Saturday August 09, 2014, were very good in terms of the application and working out on the approved standards; as the Canadian team and the representatives of the Ministry of Public Health praised two major programs: “home visits to care of chronic patients” and ” follow-up of mental health patients”.
The official result of the Commission of Accreditation Canada was released on Monday, November 17, 2014 in collaboration with the Ministry of Public Health.
