Barcelona, September 17, 2024. Clínica CreuBlanca in Barcelona has been recognized as an Acute Hospital Care Center by the Departament de Salut de la Generalitat, after successfully passing a thorough inspection process last August. This achievement positions the clinic, located at Av. J. V. Foix 63-71, as one of the few private medical centers to receive this healthcare recognition.
The Acute Hospital Care Center Accreditation certifies that a healthcare organization has achieved a level of quality and competence exceeding the standards set by the Generalitat, ensuring patients receive effective care. This certification is awarded after a rigorous evaluation process carried out by an independent entity authorized by the Departament de Salut. The inspection analyzes the organization’s activities and results in detail, comparing them against pre-established standards that cover service quality, process safety, facility conditions, resource management, and staff training, among other aspects. Once the evaluation is complete, the report is reviewed and approved by the Departament de Salut, which then grants the accreditation.
The audit team gave Clínica CreuBlanca outstanding ratings in the areas of Strategy, Leadership, and Partnerships and Resources. They particularly highlighted the clinic’s cutting-edge facilities in the field of imaging diagnostics, as well as the company’s emphasis on patient satisfaction.
Dr. Franco, Medical Director of CreuBlanca, expressed his satisfaction with this significant achievement: “We want our hospital to stand out for its patient-centered approach and excellence in healthcare. Achieving this accreditation has been a journey of great effort and teamwork, both medical and administrative, culminating in this tremendous reward for all our patients and the entire organization.”
Additionally, during the same month, CreuBlanca renewed its ISO 9001:2015 certification for another year, an international standard that sets the requirements to ensure an effective Quality Management System. This certificate attests to the organization’s ability to meet the needs of its patients while maintaining a high level of excellence in its services.
The attainment of the Acute Hospital Care Center Accreditation, along with the renewal of ISO 9001:2015, strengthens CreuBlanca’s commitment to offering top-tier healthcare. This milestone reflects a center fully oriented toward patients and entirely dedicated to continuous improvement in quality and safety. Thus, the Barcelona-based healthcare group continues to position itself as a leader in technological advancements and medical care. Its centers are renowned for their modern facilities, highly specialized medical teams, and a comprehensive range of services based on personalized care. In this regard, its most recent opening, Hospital CreuBlanca Maresme, is rapidly establishing itself as a leading private medical center in Mataró and its surrounding areas, reaffirming the healthcare group’s commitment to clinical excellence, scientific development, and personalized care.
