Dual Licensure & Dual Accreditation

The Joint Commission

The Joint Commission has awarded Sierra Tucson with dual Accreditation — both as an inpatient behavioral health unit and as a residential treatment center. This endorses Sierra Tucson’s commitment to excellence and our dually licensed Behavioral Health Residential Treatment Center.  Acknowledged as the leader in developing the highest standards for quality and safety in the delivery of healthcare, The Joint Commission evaluates organization performance based on these standards and provides an objective assessment of clinical excellence. Sierra Tucson’s Accreditation and “Gold Seal of Approval” by The Joint Commission demonstrates full compliance with its national standards for healthcare quality and safety.

National Association of Addiction Treatment Providers (NAATP)

For thirty years since its founding in 1978, the National Association of Addiction Treatment Providers (NAATP), which represents nearly 275 not-for-profit and for-profit providers (programs that offer a full continuum of care from outpatient, partial hospitalization and inpatient rehabilitation regimes), has acted as the voice of private alcoholism and drug dependency treatment programs throughout the U.S. That voice has been heard time and time again – in Congress, in the insurance industry, in the utilization review arena and in the chemical dependency treatment field itself.

National Association of Alcoholism Counselors and Trainers (NAACT)

Founded in 1974, as the National Association of Alcoholism Counselors and Trainers (NAACT), the organization’s primary objective was to develop a field of professional counselors with professional qualifications and backgrounds. The organization evolved and became the National Association for Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Counselors (NAADAC) in 1982, uniting professionals who worked for positive outcomes in alcohol and drug services.

National Association of Psychiatric Health Systems

The National Association of Psychiatric Health Systems has been a leader in advocating high-quality mental health and substance abuse care delivery for more than 78 years. Created in 1933, the National Association of Psychiatric Health Systems today represents delivery systems working to coordinate a full spectrum of treatment services, including inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization, and outpatient programs as well as prevention and management services.

The time spent at Sierra Tucson was the true beginning of my journey. Not only did I overcome my addictions, but I began to focus on the root causes that created my compulsions. I understand myself so much better now.
