Achievements & Awards
Providence Healthcare Network (Providence Health Center and The DePaul Center) are committed to providing the highest quality care in a safe environment. For this reason, The Joint Commission will conduct periodic unannounced accreditation surveys. The purpose of these surveys will be to evaluate our compliance with nationally established standards. The Joint Commission standards deal with organizational quality of care issues and the safety of the environment in which care is provided. Anyone believing that he or she has pertinent and valid concerns about such matters may contact The Joint Commission regarding these concerns.

We would appreciate the opportunity to address any concerns that you or your family may identify. Please contact Melissa Rains, Director of Quality Management at (254) 751-4732 or by e-mail at mrains@phn-waco.org.
