Accreditation at NONA
Another successful survey!
A survey team from CARF* visited our premises on February 16-18, 2011 and we have been accredited for 3 years for the following services:
- Community Services: Child and Youth Services
- Community Services: Supports for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
We invited the CARF surveyors to evaluate how well our services meet international standards for quality. The survey team will be looking at many things about us and our services. The survey will tell us what we are doing well and ways we might improve. As a result of this survey, our services may earn or continue CARF accreditation.
As part of the survey, the surveyors will interview people who use our services, their families, our staff, and others. Some questions the survey team members might ask people are:
- Are our services provided in a clean and safe setting?
- Do you receive the services you need and want for your child?
- Are you treated with respect?
- Do you take part in planning your child's services?
- Are you told what you need to know about your child's services?
- Are your questions answered in a way you understand?
- Do you know where to go with questions or concerns?
