Ozark Mountain Regional Healthcare Center’s efforts are now receiving national recognition. Ozark Mountain Regional Healthcare Center is a 2006 recipient of the American Health Care Association Quality Award.
There are approximately 16,000 nursing homes in the country. Ozark Mountain Regional Healthcare Center is one of 92 long-term care facilities in 28 states and one of only two in Missouri that earned the Step I Quality Award this year. Both centers, Ozark Mountain and Tablerock Healthcare in Kimberling City, are part of Kindred Healthcare, Inc.
The AHCA Quality Award is modeled after criteria from the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award, the nation’s premier recognition for quality achievement. The AHCA award recognizes commitment to a continuous quality improvement process. The facilities selected have made customer satisfaction and quality outcomes their top priority.
A ceremony for award recipients was conducted in October at the National AHCA Convention.
My InnerView's Excellence In Action award honors those nursing homes that achieve high levels of excellence in overall facility quality as demonstrated through receiving an AHCA Quality Award or by having overall resident and family satisfaction levels fall within the top 10% of My InnerView's customer database. As a recipient of the award, these facilities join the elite ranks of only 380 nursing homes that received the award in 2007.
To be eligible for the award, nursing facilities must be a member of My InnerView and participate in at least one survey cycle of residents and families throughout the year.
