1 - Good News Came

Late night March 12^th, 2018, an email came from CARF HQ, informing General Hospital of Heilongjiang Province Land Reclamation Bureau that they have been accredited 3 year the highest level of performance. To date, General Hospital of Heilongjiang Province Land Reclamation Bureau became the first hospital to win this honor in the vast land of northeastern China.

CARF 3-year accreditation means:

The organization demonstrates conformance to various accreditation conditions and the services provided can basically meet CARF standards. Services and operations are designed to benefit patients. The current practices can be maintained and improved in the foreseeable future. The organization can also demonstrate the determination to constant improve service quality. 3-year accreditation is the highest level of accreditation.

The joy of success came with spring warm sunshine. In the vast land of abundance, a new shining rehab star is rising, shining with the spirit of hardworking, bravery and selflessness. This new star will definitely lead Chinese rehab to advance through patient centered and continuous improvement philosophy.

2 - A rehab marathon

Nongken’s journey to CARF is like a marathon. In the 15 months’ preparation, we’ve together experienced the four seasons of the ice city and enjoyed diverse local customs. There are times of anxiety and confusion at the initial stage, anguish during the process and uneasiness while waiting for the result.

But rehab practitioners must face the fact that there is a large gap between reality and ideal, which can only be closed through a painful growing process. We’ve got together for numerous times to discuss possible solutions and adjustment to plans, making every possible effort to explore and fight for possibility of change.

CARF accreditation within such a large comprehensive provincial hospital is not possible without the great support from hospital leadership, administrative departments as well as the selfless help from directors of all departments. Led by 3 presidents, the hospital established CARF accreditation leadership team and assigned staff to chair the 6 management committees and facilitate implementation of standards. A team shining with military culture was thus formed to implement reform on rehab management.

Carrying the ardent hope of leadership, rehab director Fan lead department staff including physicians, nurses and therapists to jointly facilitate optimization in management and patient services based upon CARF standards.

3 - Not a finishing line but a new starting point

Just as leaders of the hospital expressed Nongken’s rehab has entered into a post CARF era, full of hope and challenges. Our hospital will continue to work tirelessly with others on the road to continuous quality improvement.

Memories flooded back like waves of the Songhua River. Unfolded before eyes are the vast land covered by cozy clouds. Sincerely we welcome General Hospital of Heilongjiang Province Land Reclamation Bureau to CARF family and wished they could achieve a new height under the direction for CARF ASPIRE philosophies.
