AAHA Standards of Accreditation

AAHA developed the Accreditation Program to raise the level of care being provided to companion animals. We also wanted to increase loyalty among veterinary staff members and provide a way for animal hospitals to show their excellence to their communities and clients.

AAHA, along with a group of veterinary experts, developed the AAHA Standards of Accreditation as benchmarks of excellence. We also developed the evaluation system where practices are regularly evaluated by a Practice Consultant to ensure they meet the AAHA’s standards.
