Choosing the right veterinary care for your pet is one of the most important decisions you'll make as a pet owner, and AAHA accreditation is a sign of excellence that can help guide your choice. Our veterinary team at Legacy Animal Medical Center is excited to share that we have achieved our AAHA accreditation.
What does it mean to be AAHA-accredited?
AAHA-accredited stands for 'American Animal Hospital Association Accredited'. It is a voluntary certification program for veterinary hospitals in the United States and Canada that indicates the hospital has met or surpassed strict standards of quality in veterinary care.
- AAHA-accredited hospitals follow strict standards that encompass all areas of veterinary care, including pain management, surgery, diagnostics, and client services.
- Hospitals must undergo regular evaluations to keep their accreditation, ensuring they continually improve their practices and stay current with the latest advances in veterinary medicine.
- AAHA accreditation highlights safety standards and guarantees that hospitals are equipped with the proper facilities and procedures to safeguard their patients.
- The accreditation shows that the hospital is dedicated to delivering the highest quality care for animals and their owners.
Here at the Legacy Animal Medical Center, we understand that the bond with your pet lasts a lifetime. Alongside you and your family, your veterinarian is one of the most important people in your pet’s life. Our team of veterinary experts is proud to live up to more than 900 standards of veterinary excellence laid out by the American Animal Hospital Association.
