ASPIRE to Excellence

Capabilities is a CARF (Commission on Accreditation for Rehabilitation Facilities) accredited facility.  With this, we live up to CARF“s moto of ASPIRE to Excellence.  Here is a quick video on just what CARF means by ASPIRE (yes it is an acronym in this case) to Excellence:

Just in case you don’t want to watch the video, here is what ASPIRE stands for:

  • Assess the Environment
  • Set Strategy
  • Persons Served and Other Stakeholders—Obtain Input
  • Implement the Plan
  • Review Results
  • Effect Change

CARF lists a great summary of what each part stands for, and if you are interested in reading more about how Capabilities improves our programming, check out this link: http://www.carf.org/Accreditation/QualityStandards/ASPIREtoExcellence/.

Capabilities is always striving to make the lives of people with disabilities better, and by following our accreditation standards from CARF, we feel that we are well on our way.
