[PRLog](https://www.prlog.org/13176806-achc-international-hospital-standards-earn-isqua-eea-accreditation.html) published the announcement on October 14, 2026. The accreditation covers ACHC International's hospital standards and affirms alignment with globally recognized principles for healthcare quality and patient safety.\n\n## How the ISQua EEA Review Assessed ACHC Standards\n\nThe review was conducted by a global team of peer surveyors, who evaluated supporting evidence for alignment with ISQua EEA principles across areas including person-centered care, safety and risk management, and quality performance. ISQua EEA is the international accreditation body that evaluates health and social care standards against its own guidelines and principles.\n\n\"ISQua EEA's evaluation principles for standards are forward-looking and designed to ensure safe, sustainable, equitable, high-quality care for every patient. Earning ISQua EEA accreditation is an important milestone for ACHC International,\" the company said.\n\nFor ACHC International, the accreditation strengthens its ability to support hospitals and healthcare organizations outside the United States that seek a recognized credential validating the quality of their patient care and their quality as a workplace. ACHC International is an independent, nonprofit organization that offers accreditation and related education to global healthcare organizations, partnering with providers across the continuum of care to improve quality, strengthen operations and advance patient outcomes.\n\nFor more than 40 years, ACHC has partnered with healthcare providers to elevate quality, improve operational performance and help organizations navigate changing healthcare environments through a collaborative, educational accreditation experience. ACHC International builds on that approach and customer-first focus. More information about ACHC International is available on its website.\n\n## What the Accreditation Period Covers\n\nThe accreditation extends from 2026 through 2030, a four-year period during which ACHC International's hospital standards carry ISQua EEA recognition. The assessment followed ISQua EEA's Guidelines and Principles for the Development of Health and Social Care Standards, the framework the organization uses to evaluate standards submitted by accrediting bodies. ISQua EEA's own [standards evaluation program](https://ieea.ch) sets out the principles applied in the review.\n","publisher":{"name":"News for Agent","url":"https://newsforagent.com"}}
