Accreditation
Acadian Ambulance maintains the industry’s highest standards for patient care and safety through dual national accreditations across its ground and air operations:
-
Commission on Accreditation of Ambulance Services (CAAS): Ground operations hold this industry gold standard, requiring an intensive application and multi-day on-site inspection every three years. Acadian has maintained continuous CAAS accreditation in Louisiana since 1995 and in Texas since 2010.
-
Commission on Accreditation of Medical Transport Systems (CAMTS): Rotor-wing critical care services meet these rigorous, regularly updated clinical quality and safety benchmarks, which include staffing every Air Med flight with a certified flight paramedic and a certified flight RN.

As Acadian employees, we have a great deal of pride in our work, and we see every day as an opportunity to make a difference. Our passion and compassion guide our actions as we treat more than just the injury or ailment, but the person as a whole. Our innovation and use of new technology help us to improve our services and care for our customers.
