CUMBERLAND COUNTY, NJ (June 15, 2015) – The Frank and Edith Scarpa Regional Cancer Pavilion at Inspira Medical Center Vineland recently announced it has been reaccredited by the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC) for being a leader in providing the highest level of quality breast care. This is Inspira’s second consecutive NAPBC designation since its first accreditation in 2012.
This three-year/full accreditation program, administered by the American College of Surgeons, is only awarded to centers that voluntarily undergo a rigorous evaluation and review performance process.
During the survey process, the medical center must demonstrate compliance with standards established by the NAPBC for treating women who are diagnosed with the full spectrum of breast disease. These standards include proficiency in the areas of: center leadership, clinical management, research, community outreach, professional education and quality improvement.
Receiving care at a NAPBC-accredited center ensures that a patient will have access to:
- Comprehensive care, including a full range of state-of-the-art services
- A multidisciplinary team approach to coordinate the best treatment options
- Information about ongoing clinical trials and new treatment options
- Quality breast care close to home
As part of its comprehensive breast center, Inspira’s connects patients with its Breast Cancer Bridge program, which provides personal counseling and support for women who have abnormal mammograms, breast changes or lumps, or who are newly diagnosed with breast cancer and undergoing cancer treatment.
