By demonstrating compliance with The Joint Commission's national standards for health care quality and safety, Red Rock Canyon School has earned the Joint Commission's Seal of Approval. The School is a state-licensed residential treatment center serving boys and girls ages 12 to 17.

"We sought accreditation for our organization because we want to demonstrate our commitment to our patient's safety and quality care," says Red Rock Canyon School. "We view obtaining Joint Commission accreditation as another step toward achieving excellence."

"The exciting part of the JCAHO, Joint Commission on Accreditation for Health Organizations, process was realizing we had already implemented many of the standards required by JCAHO" says Brian Pace, Executive Director. "The hardest part of the process was the length of time it took to actually be awarded the accreditation!"

The accreditation award recognizes Red Rock Canyon Schools dedication to fulfilling the Joint Commission's state-of-the-art standards on an unremitting basis. To earn and maintain accreditation, a behavioral health care organization must undergo an on-site survey by a Joint Commission survey team at least every three years.

Founded in 1951, The Joint Commission seeks to continuously improve health care for the public by evaluating health care organizations and inspiring them to excel in providing safe and effective care of the highest quality and value. The Joint Commission evaluates and accredits more than 17,000 health care organizations and programs in the United States, including more than 9,500 hospitals and home care organizations, and more than 6,300 other health care organizations. An independent, not-for-profit organization, The Joint Commission is the nation's oldest and largest standards-setting and accrediting body in health care.
