Brewer Rehab and Living Center Awarded Three-Year CARF Accreditation
Brewer, ME --- The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) announced that Brewer Rehabilitation and Living Center has been accredited for three years for its Brain Injury Rehabilitation Programs. The latest accreditation is the fifth consecutive three-year accreditation outcome that the international accrediting commission has awarded to Brewer Rehab.
This accreditation outcome represents the highest level of accreditation that can be awarded to an organization and shows the organization’s substantial conformance to the standards established by CARF.
