Congratulations to Acadian Ambulance on Earning CAAS Reaccreditation!
The Greater Pointe Coupee Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to extend our heartfelt congratulations to one of our valued members, Acadian Ambulance Louisiana and Mississippi Operations, for achieving reaccreditation from the Commission on Accreditation of Ambulance Services (CAAS)!
This prestigious recognition is a testament to Acadian Ambulance's unwavering commitment to providing the highest standards of care, safety, and operational excellence in the communities they serve. Earning CAAS accreditation is no small feat—it involves rigorous evaluation and adherence to over 100 standards that cover everything from clinical quality to vehicle maintenance and employee education.
"To our community partners,
I am very proud to report that Acadian Ambulance’s Louisiana and Mississippi operations recently earned a perfect score in our recent reaccreditation review from the Commission on Accreditation of Ambulance Services (CAAS). The accreditation review, similar to the rigorous process used by hospitals and nursing facilities, is conducted every three years and includes an intensive application process and a multi-day on-site inspection by outside experts. Reviewers from across the nation visited our Louisiana and Mississippi service areas, including our newest operations area: Harrison County, MS. Our Texas operations were reaccredited by CAAS in 2022. CAAS was established to encourage, promote and recognize quality patient care in America’s medical transportation system. Accreditation signifies that an agency has met the industry’s highest standards, which often exceed state or local regulations. Acadian Ambulance has been CAAS-accredited since 1995. Our company is one of two ambulance services in Louisiana, one of two in Mississippi, one of 12 in Texas and one of approximately 170 in the nation to have earned CAAS accreditation." - Justin Cox, Governmental Relations Liaison, Acadian Ambulance
Why CAAS Accreditation Matters

It symbolizes a dedication to continuous improvement, patient-centered care, and organizational excellence. For Acadian Ambulance, this reaccreditation reaffirms their leadership in emergency medical services, ensuring residents of Louisiana and Mississippi have access to top-tier pre-hospital care when it’s needed most.
A Legacy of Excellence
Acadian Ambulance has long been a vital partner in our community, delivering life-saving services with compassion and professionalism. Their commitment extends beyond the immediate demands of emergency response; they are also active participants in local initiatives, workforce development, and public health education.
