“APEX earned CHAP’s Heart Failure Certification in 2022 and has maintained it for three years. With CHAP’s expert support, we implemented a high-quality program that empowers heart failure patients to take control of their care at home. We’ve witnessed remarkable transformations—patients once hospitalized weekly are now managing their medications, nutrition, and anxiety, regaining independence, and even enjoying activities like driving and shopping with their grandchildren. Some have gone over a year without unnecessary hospitalizations, improving both their health and psychosocial well-being. Collaboration with CHAP has also elevated our Palliative Providers (NPs), who dedicate nearly two hours to each assessment, treating both the patient and the person. Their commitment to excellence is reflected in the CHAP badge they proudly earn each year. Because of the disease certification opportunity, we have raised the bar in Standards of Excellence and look forward to applying for our next certification. “

“Developing systems to meet the CHAP Disease Program frameworks for documenting processes, procedures, and outcomes can be challenging. However, the payoff is that it can help our organization create and execute successful programs, enhance the quality of care, and result in better patient outcomes. For patients, CHAP certification holds significant importance as it assures them of receiving exceptional care, reliability, a focus on their needs, a commitment to continuous growth, and trust in their healthcare.”

– Elena Lyustina, VP Clinical Services

“Our agency already had a very strong wound care program, but making the decision to pursue the disease certification program through CHAP provided us with a framework and tools to bring our program to the level of excellence. We are proud to regularly share that we have the distinction of having a CHAP Certified program to care for our patients.”

– Nadene Turner, Administrator/Director of Patient Care Services

“Our agency decided to pursue two disease process certifications through CHAP, and I led the team in the process for both. Our agency found the structure and expectations of the certification process gave us a strong evidence-based foundation to stand on. Our patients who are enrolled in these programs, CHF and Stroke Recovery, have voiced that they appreciate the organization our programs offer them in terms of education and evidence-based tools that they can use in their daily life. We have completed a recertification and have enjoyed the overall process of getting our disease process certifications through CHAP!”
