Public Health Accreditation

As trained site visitors for the Public Health Accreditation Board (PHAB) and a former accreditation coordinator for a New Jersey Public Health Department, the team at SHA is uniquely situated to help your department make the accreditation journey. Specifically, accreditation assesses a health department’s capacity to carry out the ten Essential Public Health Services; manage an effective health department; and maintain strong and effective communications with the governing entity. SHA can assist health departments with many of the plans, policies, protocols, and programs necessary for accreditation.
