The NACCHO University vodcast highlights how the U.S. Food and Drug Administrations (FDAs) Retail Program Standards and the Public Health Accreditation Boards (PHABs) Standards and Measures complement each other. The vodcast also demonstrates how local health departments have applied their knowledge regarding the Retail program Standards to meet required PHAB documentation. Representatives from three different LHDs share their experiences.
