While UAB’s size and resources helped push the ED to accredited status, Dr. McDonald says size and location shouldn’t be a deterrent to working toward the application and review process.

“Much of what goes into this achievement are things you’re probably already doing, so keep doing it and document and keep greeting people with a smile when you’re helping them,” Dr. McDonald said. “I think some of the smaller hospital systems maybe feel like it’s not something that they can aspire to achieve, but that’s not true. I would say to keep your vision large and tackle each little part of the process one by one.”
