National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC)
Lowell General Hospital is accredited by the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC), a program administered by the American College of Surgeons. This three-year, full accreditation means that we are dedicated to providing the highest level of patient-centered care, offering women every significant advantage in their treatment against breast disease. NAPBC accreditation provides value across all domains of care, including: access to care and service, patient satisfaction and well-being, and quality of cancer care.
Patients receiving care at a NAPBC-accredited center have access to information on clinical trials and new treatments, genetic counseling, and patient centered services including psycho-social support, and a survivorship care plan that documents the care each patient receives and seeks to improve cancer survivor’s quality of life.
