Barbados Fertility Centre
(BFC) has AGAIN been awarded the Gold
Seal of approval from the Joint Commission International, after
continuing to excel in the highest standards of patient care. This is the third
time that BFC has achieved this prestigious award!
Joint Commission
International (JCI) is the US health facility accreditation programme that set stringent
health care standards across the world, to give patients assurance that medical
establishments have undergone vigorous testing so that patients can rest
assured in the high standard of treatment they will receive.
BFC is now listed under the very elite group of clinics
worldwide because they have such high standards of patient care. This is
excellent news for the Caribbean as BFC continues to boost medical tourism and
maintains their position as the leading Medical Tourism facility for Barbados.
With the JCI gold seal, this assures patients that the quality of care they
will receive when deciding on
BFC for IVF treatment is world-class and
simply the best patient care they can receive anywhere in the world.
The accreditation process
is considered by
BFC to be essential
in improving the quality of care given to patients, and that by investing in
new and improved quality measurement systems, resources and staff training they
are providing the best treatment for continued high success rates in IVF
cycles. These quality standards also ensure continuous improvement with the
continual monitoring. With this constant improvement, BFC pledges their
commitment to remain current in every possible area that could improve the
service they offer to both the Barbadian public and to the world.
Since opening in 2002, they have
year on year
increased the number of couples conceiving through the creation of a stress
reduced environment for couples under going IVF treatment.
BFC
is one of the first IVF units in the world to
offer a combination of medical tradition and a holistic approach by treating
couples both mentally and physically at their on-site wellness centre – The Life
Wellness Centre.
Couples who
choose to undergo the Healthy Mind and Body programme can benefit from massage,
reflexology, acupuncture, nutrition advice and counselling to cope with the
whole IVF procedure.
BFC believes
that their approach of allowing couples to de-stress whilst undergoing treatment
is why they are so successful. All of this combined with accreditation to
ensure the quality of patient care, can only mean constant improvement in the
service that they provide.
