Commonwealth Eye Surgery Center
Commonwealth Eye Surgery Center is committed to providing quality ophthalmic healthcare to our patients. Commonwealth Eye Surgicenter is accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC) and is Central Kentucky’s first ophthalmic surgical facility dedicated solely to the surgical care of the eye.
Unlike hospitals and other ambulatory surgical centers whose staff is trained in general surgery, our staff is intensively trained in ophthalmology, providing our patients with superior subspecialty care. Our accreditation through the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care, Inc. (AAAHC) illustrates our level of commitment and dedication to the care that we provide our patients. Our team continually works to promote quality care by meeting and exceeding AAAHC standards of practice to ensure high quality and safe care for our patients.
AAAHC accreditation of Commonwealth Eye Surgicenter underlines our mission statement – “To improve the quality of patients’ lives through surgical excellence and patient centered co-management.” Without great effort from everyone in our ASC staff, we would not meet the high standards required for AAAHC accreditation, the only independent and objective evaluator of ASC quality. The gold standard of AAAHC accreditation is a stamp of approval on not only staff and surgical competency, but also the equipment, the physical environment, safety and emergency protocols, records of continuous quality assessment, and logs for maintenance of each element of the surgical facility. In short, achieving the AAAHC standard helps assure patients that our ASC is a place where you and your loved ones can have utmost confidence when undergoing a procedure. In fact, our own staff and their families choose to have their procedures performed at our facility, and that is the best reassurance any prospective patient could have. We treat everyone like family, and that includes providing the safest environment, the most technologically advanced equipment, and personalized professional care available at any facility. Our AAAHC accreditation documents that our efforts surpass the highest standard available.
