HAVE YOU HEARD?
The American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer has given the San Juan, PR, VA Medical Center its highest award – Three Years with Commendation – certifying VA’s commitment to maintaining the highest standards in cancer diagnosis and treatment.
The Three-Year Commendation is awarded to programs that comply with all standards and receive a commendation rating for one or more of the eligible standards. The San Juan VA Medical Center is now eligible for the Commission on Cancer Outstanding Achievement Award.
The “Cancer Program Standards 2004, Revised Edition” includes eight important areas of program activity and a survey process based on objective evaluation of the 36 standards set forth in the current manual. Nancy Reissener, acting director for the VA Caribbean Healthcare System, said “the importance of this new award emphasizes our continuous search for excellence. Veterans of all ages benefit from VA’s best practices in the Caribbean, as well as on the mainland.”
