The American Health Care Association and the National Center for Assisted Living (AHCA/NCAL) National Quality Award Program provides a pathway for providers of long-term care services to journey towards performance excellence. A progressive program based on the Baldridge Criteria for Performance Excellence, participants move from Bronze Commitment to Quality, to Silver Achievement in Quality, then ultimately to the Gold Excellence in Quality. Whats that mean for consumers?
Performance Improvement The Program provides a proven framework for long-term care facilities to improve their clinical, quality or operational outcome areas.
Superior Outcomes Research shows that Silver and Gold recipients have superior performance in key quality outcome areas such as 30-day hospital readmission, off-label use of antipsychotics, Five-Star ratings and occupancy rate.
Regulatory Demands The program criteria prepare long-term care facilities to meet their regulatory demands.
Team Engagement The program brings staff together for one common goal by serving as a team building activity to engage staff across all levels of an organization.
Esteemed Recognition The AHCA/NCAL National Quality Award provides national, external validation of high-quality care services.
The National Quality Award is a significant achievement for residents, families and the community. Often, our long-term care facilities are centerpieces for employment, activities, fundraising and hubs for our community. Congratulations to the 2018 National Quality Award winners.
