Designation Recognizes Star’s Commitment to Patient Safety
Star Medical Center, a specialty surgical hospital in Plano, TX and affiliate of Lumin Health, announced today that the facility was awarded full accreditation status by Det Norske Veritas Healthcare (DNV GL – Healthcare). In earning the accreditation, Star Medical Center has demonstrated it meets or exceeds patient safety standards.
To achieve this distinction, Star Medical Center underwent a rigorous on-site review in January 2015. DNV GL experts evaluated the facility for compliance with standards of care specific to the needs of patients and families, including leadership and medication management, and infection prevention and control.
“In achieving the DNV certification, Star Medical Center has demonstrated its commitment to the highest level of care for its patients," said Mark Kennedy, CEO of Star Medical Center. “Certification is voluntary, and I praise our team for successfully undertaking this challenge to elevate our standard of care and inspire confidence in the community we serve.”
DNV GL – Healthcare is a Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)-authorized accrediting organization for acute care hospitals. More than 400 hospitals across the country have received accreditation. The DNV GL accreditation program is the first and only program to integrate the Medicare Conditions of Participation with the ISO 9001 Quality Management System.
Recently, the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) granted a new six-year approval of DNV GL as a national accrediting organization for critical access hospitals through Dec. 23, 2020.
Star Medical Center is located at 4100 Mapleshade Lane, Plano, TX 75075.
