Accreditation

Accreditation helps to ensure we're providing safe, high quality care to every single patient. It's one of the most effective ways for Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) to regularly and consistently examine and improve the quality of our services. While the process is voluntary, all health authorities in B.C. participate.
