MEDEX Northwest

Happy Juneteenth, everyone!

As part of our ongoing commitment to transparency and continuous improvement, MEDEX Northwest is pleased to announce the MEDEX Accreditation Status Dashboard.

This dashboard provides an up‑to‑date overview of our accreditation status, progress to date, and anticipated future actions. It will be refreshed as new information becomes available and serves as a centralized source for MEDEX accreditation updates.

As an important reminder, while MEDEX is assigned Accreditation-Probation status, the program remains fully accredited, as probation status does not constitute a withdrawal of accreditation.

The dashboard can be accessed here https://bit.ly/MEDEX-Accreditation-Dashboard-fb and other helpful information can be accessed via our main Accreditation page here: https://bit.ly/MEDEX-Accreditation-fb
