Physicians Premier Emergency Room:
CIHQ Accredited Facilities

The Center for Improvement in Healthcare Quality (CIHQ) is a nationally recognized accreditation organization that sets the standard for free-standing emergency centers (FSEC). CIHQ accreditation is a mark of excellence that reflects a facility’s commitment to high standards of patient care and safety.

Earning CIHQ accreditation requires a thorough and strict evaluation process. The CIHQ team conducts an onsite assessment, touring the facility, reviewing medical records, observing care practices, and interviewing staff and patients. This detailed process ensures that only the facilities that meet the highest standards receive accreditation.

For our patients and community, CIHQ accreditation means:

• Quality Assurance – We adhere to the highest standards of patient care and safety, ensuring that every aspect of our service meets national guidelines.
• Commitment to Improvement – Continuous evaluation and improvement of our practices to provide the best possible care.
• Trust – Confidence in the care you receive at Physicians Premier ER, knowing that we are recognized for our excellence in healthcare.

At Physicians Premier ER, our journey to CIHQ accreditation involved meticulous preparation and a commitment to excellence. Our team worked tirelessly to meet and exceed CIHQ’s strict standards, ensuring that our patients receive the best possible care. The CIHQ team’s visit included:

• Facility Tour – A comprehensive tour of our facilities to assess the environment and infrastructure.
• Medical Records Review – An in-depth review of our medical records to ensure accuracy and compliance with standards.
• Care Practice Observation – Direct observation of our care practices to evaluate the quality and safety of our services.
• Staff and Patient Interviews – Interviews with our staff and patients to gain insights into our care processes and patient experiences.

This accreditation is not just a recognition of our efforts but a promise to our community. Our patients can be confident that they are receiving care from a facility that is nationally recognized for its dedication to quality and safety. We invite you to learn more about the CIHQ and our accreditation by visiting the CIHQ website.
