ACCREDITATION IS IMPORTANT BUSINESS IN ORTHOPEDIC SURGERY.
You’re choosy about who you choose to perform joint replacement surgery. You want a surgeon you’re comfortable with and one with whom you can trust your mobility. You want a doctor who will listen to you and see you all the way through your recovery. Finally, be sure your surgeon insists on using an accredited hospital, such as Meadows Regional, for his or her surgeries.

Accredited hospitals offer patients the assurance that national standards are being met for patient safety and infection control, two critical components of every surgery. At Meadows Regional, we’re proud to adhere to and be accredited by the Joint Commission. Your safety is as important to us as your health.
