Following a 5-Star Rating by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid, as well as a zero-deficiency state survey in 2016, the Good Samaritan Society Fort Collins Village has now also received Providigm’s Embracing Excellence Award for 2016. This independent, national accrediting agency oversees that nursing homes are meeting or exceeding federal regulations regarding quality of care provided to the residents they serve.
This specific award reflects excellence based on three performance measures: deficiency-free surveys, re-admissions prevention, and customer satisfaction. The Fort Collins Village succeeded in two of those three categories (the first and third) thus becoming 1 of only 298 centers in the U.S. and Ontario, Canada, receiving this award.
According to Providigm’s Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Andrew Kramer, “Good Samaritan Society’s Fort Collins Village is an excellent example of a nursing center taking initiative to proactively identify and correct quality concerns.” Kramer continued. “Their commendable use of the abaqis Quality Management System ensures that they are constantly monitoring important quality of care and life issues for their residents.”
“We are extremely proud of the work our care team has accomplished to achieve this accreditation,” said Fred Pitzl, Administrator at the Fort Collins Village. “We take quality seriously. We strive to give our residents the quality of life and level of dignity they deserve while embodying our Mission “to share God’s love in word and deed.”
