PORT TOWNSEND — The radiology department at Jefferson General Hospital has been awarded a three-year accreditation in mammography by the American College of Radiology.
“It means patients know they are coming to a facility that has high-quality technicians and equipment certified through the Food and Drug Administration and the American College of Radiology,” Teri Roorbach, director of the radiology department said.
The accreditation followed a monthlong survey of quality control measures in the radiology department that included certification that all technologists and radiologists were completing mandated continuing education, and that FDA standards are being met.
