EATA Accreditation Scheme
Treatment works, but not all treatment services work equally well
A mark of quality
Demonstrating the quality of service you provide to individuals in drug and alcohol rehabilitative treatment is essential for helping informed purchase and choice.
In acknowledgement of this, we have established EATA's Accreditation Scheme, which offers our members the opportunity to gain Accredited Provider Status. It is the kite mark for quality for rehabilitative treatment providers, enabling them to visibly demonstrate the quality of treatment delivery through clear evidence about aims, objectives and methods used.
Why become an Accredited EATA member?
EATA's Accreditation Scheme is a new learning experience, which can bring vast benefits to your organisation.
- It is designed to make services think about processes, systems and the structure of the treatment manual used by your service
- Successfully links in the quality of care received by clients in treatment
- Gives you the scope to identify which areas can be improved in the future
- Helps you explore with EATA what comprises 'quality treatment'
- You and your staff gain a deeper understanding and knowledge of how effective your service is in terms of treatment.
- Allows your organisation to stand out from the rest
- Accreditation is valid for three years
Working towards improved services
Accreditation is aimed at members engaged in structured psychosocial treatment services for people with drug and alcohol problems - whether in residential or day care settings.
To achieve Accreditation, applicants must satisfy an independent panel of experts that their services effectively support a reduction in substance use in individuals.
