Georgia Southern Health Services Earns National Accreditation for Quality and Safety
Georgia Southern University Health Services Statesboro Clinic has once again earned accreditation from the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC), demonstrating its ongoing commitment to providing high-quality, student-centered healthcare. The recent accreditation applies to the Health Services clinic located on the Statesboro Campus.
AAAHC accreditation is recognized as the gold standard for ambulatory (outpatient) healthcare organizations. To achieve this distinction, Health Services voluntarily underwent a comprehensive, independent evaluation of its clinical practices, patient safety protocols, and operations. Accreditation reflects adherence to nationally recognized standards and demonstrates a strong focus on continuous improvement in healthcare delivery.
Georgia Southern’s campus clinics also participate in 1095 Strong, an AAAHC initiative that emphasizes maintaining excellence every day — not just during accreditation surveys. Named for the 1,095 days in the typical three-year accreditation cycle, 1095 Strong reinforces the expectation that quality care and patient safety remain a priority year-round.
“Achieving AAAHC accreditation once again is a testament to the dedication and professionalism of our entire team,” said Emily Brannen, Director of Health Services. “We take great pride in the care we provide, knowing that supporting students’ health is essential to their academic journey and overall success. This distinction affirms our ongoing commitment to delivering high-quality, compassionate care to our campus community. We are proud to care for our students and look forward to continuing to serve them for many years to come.”
AAAHC accreditation highlights the Health Services team’s role as a trusted resource for students, providing essential medical care that helps support student well-being, academic success, and overall campus health.
