The City of St. Louis Health Department has achieved national re-accreditation by the Public Health Accreditation Board (PHAB). The national accreditation program works to improve and protect the health of the public by advancing and transforming the quality and performance of the nation’s state, local, Tribal, and territorial public health departments.
“This reaccreditation is not just a certificate, but a symbol of the extraordinary work we do every day,” said Dr. Matifadza Hlatshwayo Davis, MD, MPH, FIDSA, director of health.
“It is the result of the teamwork, innovation, and passion each of our employees has brought to the reaccreditation process. Their collaboration in aligning the Department’s policies, practices, and programs with PHAB’s standards has been integral to this success.”
