Following its survey in Lewiston last month, the Commission on Cancer (CoC) has granted accreditation status to the Cancer Care Center at CMMC through June 2027.
The Cancer Care Center in Lewiston is one of only four in the state of Maine that has CoC accreditation.
The commission cited the Center’s multidisciplinary approach, strong supportive services, excellent follow-up rates and high performance on several quality measures. The reviewer described CMMC as a “solid and dedicated program” that is committed to providing high-quality cancer care for our community.
“I am incredibly proud of our cancer program team for their hard work, resilience and dedication throughout this process,” said Jessica Gironi, oncology accreditation manager at the Cancer Care Center. “The commitment to quality, patient-centered care and continuous improvement has been instrumental in our success. I would also like to thank the leadership team at CMMC which has provided valuable resources and helped strengthen our ability to deliver exceptional cancer care to the communities we serve.”
