Educating healthcare leaders for the 21st century: evolution not revolution.
In April of 1988, the Accrediting Commission on Education for Health Services Administration began reviewing its criteria, policies, and procedures for accreditation. The goal was to update the criteria and revise the policies and procedures to reflect advances in knowledge and practice and to ensure that accreditation judgments are objective and consistent. Since input from those most affected by the new criteria--faculty and practitioners--is essential, the commission sought assistance from the field. Through this collaboration, it is ACEHSA's intention to continue to encourage the dynamic collaboration of the field of education and the field of practice in health services administration that's characteristic of ACEHSA's 20-year history.
