What is an AAHA Accredited Animal Hospital?

What is an AAHA Accredited Animal Hospital?

At Kearny Mesa Veterinary Center, our team is proud to meet the rigorous veterinary service and care requirements needed to achieve accreditation from the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA).

What is AAHA Accreditation?

As the only organization that accredits veterinary practices in the United States and Canada, AAHA evaluates animal hospitals on a range of stringent quality standards that encompass all aspects of veterinary medicine - from patient care and pain management to medical recordkeeping and stream training. 

This accreditation is continuously updated and reevaluated to keep accredited hospitals at the forefront of the profession.

AAHA Guidelines

Developed by experts in the veterinary field, AAHA provides cutting-edge, frequently updated guidelines that help veterinary professionals face the demands of a continually shifting industry and provide pets with the best possible quality of care.

Recommendations on the appropriate healthcare for cats and dogs are ever-evolving, and AAHA guidelines assist veterinary professionals with developing evidence-based protocols for cats and dogs in their practices.

The AAHA aims to provide the most current, non-biased guidelines on clinically relevant topics to the benefit of not only AAHA members and their patients and clients, but of the entire veterinary profession.
