The American Academy of Hospital Chiropractors is a non-profit, national
organization established to promote chiropractic in hospitals and to advocate
for those chiropractors who practice in the hospital environment.
Certified Chiropractors Needed
The need for qualified professionals continues to rise as hospitals across the country are realizing the benefits of providing chiropractic services. Hospital administrators and those in charge of policy are quick to acknowledge that:
-
The chiropractic physician provides extra attention, rationale and the appropriate treatment that significantly improves patient outcomes.
-
Chiropractors offer an extra tool that the medical staff can use to provide the best possible care for their patients.
-
There is less re-medication of patients receiving chiropractic care in the hospital setting.
-
There are fewer repeat visits to the emergency room when a chiropractor has treated the patient
-
Medical and nursing staffs appreciate the help provided by chiropractic doctors.
...and the numbers are increasing
According to the Job Analysis of Chiropractic, a project report, survey analysis,
and summary of the practice of chiropractic within the United States, published
by the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners in January 2005, 6% of chiropractors in the United States have some type of hospital privileges. This is an increase from 4.9% in 1991 and 5.2% in 1998.
AAHC certification is quickly becoming the benchmark credential for hospital chiropractors. Many hospitals now require AAHC certification for their staff chiropractors. CE credit are sponsored through NYCC.
Do you know a key person in your local hospital?
Contact the AAHC and let us help you!
