Our mission
The mission of Overmountain Recovery is to provide the highest quality of care to those experiencing opioid use disorder, with or without co-occurring disorders, in an environment that preserves and promotes the dignity of the persons served without regard to race, color, creed, gender, economic or social circumstance, sexual orientation, or national origin.
Accreditation
Overmountain regularly measures and reports on the performance of our program. We track both efficiency and effectiveness measures.
Because of this dedication to quality, we’ve earned a three-year accreditation from CARF (the Commission on the Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities).
CARF three-year accreditation is the highest accreditation level awarded to organizations like Overmountain.
The CARF accreditation process
To receive three-year accreditation from CARF, organizations are put through a rigorous process that includes, among other requirements, live on-site surveys.
These requirements ensure our programs meet CARF’s high standards of quality and accountability.
