Published November 06, 2009 11:52 pm - Cherokee Nation selected as accreditation test site TAHLEQUAH — The Cherokee Nation has been selected as one of only 30 public health departments that will participate in a test of a national voluntary public health accreditation program to be licensed through the Public Health Accreditation Board.
From fall 2009 through the end of 2010, the 30 sites, which include 19 local, eight state, and three tribal health departments, will complete the accreditation process and provide feedback that will be used to make improvements in the accreditation program prior to its national launch in 2011. The goal of the program is to improve and protect the health of every community by advancing the quality and performance of public health departments. The Board received more than 145 applications from state, local and tribal health departments. To ensure that the test sites represented a diverse cross-section of the population, the Board carefully selected health departments that vary in size, structure, population served, governance, geographic region, and degree of preparedness for accreditation.
