We are proud to announce the OCSRI radiation department’s accreditation by the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) through the Accreditation Program for Excellence (APEx®). This certification demonstrates our commitment to excellence in delivering high-quality oncology care and positions OCSRI as one of the few in Oklahoma to receive this recognition.
“Achieving APEx accreditation is a testament to our dedication in delivering excellent care for our patients,” said Liz Hyde, Director of Radiation, Imaging, and Special Support Services. “Our radiation oncology team’s mission is to provide hope and healing. Earning this national recognition is not just a title, but a demonstration of our commitment to consistent, patient-centered care and our community.”
APEx is the fastest-growing radiation oncology practice accreditation program in the United States. The accreditation process involves a thorough assessment of the facility, equipment, care coordination, patient safety and treatment procedures. By undergoing this voluntary, rigorous multistep process, OCSRI demonstrates superior national safety and quality benchmarks and an unwavering adherence to patient-centered care.
Compliance with APEx safety and care standards means ongoing promotion of effective communication, coordinated treatments, and strong patient engagement—standards that OCSRI consistently meets and exceeds.
It is our mission to place patients at the heart of everything we do, ensuring each step forward in oncology care is guided by their needs and well-being. With a team of nationally accredited specialists, we provide personalized treatment, transparent counsel and advanced technology to deliver the most effective care possible.
