We exceed standards.

Snell’s Orthotics-Prosthetics is accredited by the American Board for Certification in Orthotics & Prosthetics and by the State of Louisiana. Our facility is also a member of the American Orthotic & Prosthetic Association, whose principal goal is to promote the highest level of orthotic and prosthetic patient-care services.

Facility Accreditation

ABC standards create a minimum expectation for the physical environment and organizational function of orthotic, prosthetic and pedorthic patient care providers.

Standards are grouped into categories and include topics such as:

Organizational process
Patient care
Performance management
Product safety
Facility safety
Supplier compliance

Each of these categories contains a set of standards unique to the specific type of accreditation an organization is seeking. And, In 2008, seeing a need for state specific facility accreditation Clint Snell, along with other professionals in the state worked together to develop policies and procedures for Louisiana’s Facility Accreditation law (Act number 732). Snell’s has been an ABC accredited facility since the inception of the program and was among the first to become a Louisiana state accredited facility.
