Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC)- AAAHC accreditation means that the organization participates in on-going self-evaluation, peer review and education to continuously improve its care and services. The organization also commits to a thorough, on-site survey by AAAHC surveyors, who are themselves health care professionals, at least every three years. (Communication in attachment)

B-Healthy, Binghamton University's Healthy Campus Initiative, has a goal of creating an environment and identity that encourages and supports healthy living. Improving the health and well-being of our community and its members improves students' capacity to learn, reduces some of the high-impact impediments to academic performance, improves student retention by improving coping strategies and psychological health, and sets the stage for lifelong healthy living. Workplace wellness for faculty and staff can positively impact employee health and job satisfaction, boost engagement and enhance productivity, resulting in greater employee retention and institutional cost savings.
