Healthcare Network was awarded accreditation by The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). The three-year award verifies that a health care provider meets the most rigorous quality and safety standards of care for their patients and communities. Healthcare Network maintained accreditation from JCAHO from 1995 – 2007 when they switched accrediting agencies to the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC).

In response to a county commission-appointed study on the accessibility of healthcare to Collier County residents, Collier Health Services opened its first primary care medical practice in east Naples.

Healthcare Network has grown from two small trailers in Immokalee to a comprehensive network of providers located throughout Collier County. Always sensitive to growing needs, leadership continues to seek ways to increase access and primary health services for everyone in our community, regardless of income or insurance status.
