Highline Cancer Center’s commitment to excellence in providing quality care to patients has been nationally recognized for the second consecutive three-year term. The American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer (CoC) awarded Highline Cancer Center with the Outstanding Achievement Award for meeting seven strict standards.

“We are honored to be one of only two hospitals in Washington to receive this recognition,” said Jacqui Sinatra, director of Highline Cancer Center. “As an accredited program, Highline continues to demonstrate its dedication to the best treatment and support for our cancer patients.”

Highline Cancer Center has been accredited as a Comprehensive Community Cancer Program since 1985. Receiving care at a CoC approved program ensures patients have access to the latest technology, a multidisciplinary team approach to coordinate care, information about clinical trials and new treatments, access to cancer education and support, and most importantly, quality care close to home.

The Commission on Cancer is a consortium of professional organizations dedicated to improving survival rates and quality of life for cancer patients through standard-setting, prevention, research and education.
