Topic: Letter of The Law / Accreditation - pros and cons I believe that accreditation is a positive step in the right direction for any detention facility. The pros about NCCHC accreditation is that their sole focus is on correctional health care. Their standards of care follow inmate health from intake to discharge. The number one line item in any facilities budget is health care. The number one area of liability is in health care. I believe that facilities will ultimately see a reduction in costs if they catch inmate health needs early and manage them during the entirety of their incarceration. Obtaining and maintaining accreditation is a proactive approach worthy of consideration. |
