The Home Care Alliance of Massachusetts is proud to announce that South Shore Visiting Nurse Association has successfully achieved Accreditation through the HCA Accreditation Program, joining a growing network of agencies committed to excellence and accountability in home care.

HCA Accreditation is a voluntary, peer-reviewed program that recognizes home care organizations for meeting rigorous standards across key areas of operations, including governance, client care, human resources, safety, and quality improvement. Developed by providers for providers, the program helps agencies strengthen internal practices, enhance client trust, and stand out in a competitive marketplace.

For South Shore VNA, earning accreditation demonstrates a clear dedication to delivering high-quality, patient-centered care and adhering to best practices that support both staff and clients. Accreditation is not only a symbol of quality — it’s a practical framework for continuous improvement and readiness for upcoming state licensure requirements.

The HCA Accreditation Program is available at no additional cost to all Alliance members, offering a meaningful way to showcase your agency’s professionalism and commitment to high standards. Whether you are a private-pay home care provider, a certified agency, or a hospice program, accreditation can help strengthen your reputation and expand your referral partnerships.
