The Bronze Commitment to Quality Award Is one of three
progressive award levels through the National Quality Award
Program, which AHCA/NCAL established in 1996. It is based on the
core values and criteria of the Baldrige Performance Excellence
Program, which is also the foundation of the metric-based AHCA/NCAL
Quality Initiative. The Baldrige program helps organizations in
different business sectors improve and achieve performance
excellence.
"It's rewarding to be recognized with a prestigious quality
award that underscores the standards that guide what we do every
day," said Randy Bloom, Ph.D., chief
operating officer of Tutera Senior Living & Health Care. "Our
ongoing YOUNITE initiative is designed to ensure we are
continuously asking, listening and responding in ways that are
personally meaningful to residents, family members and staff in all
our communities across the nation."
Bronze applicants must demonstrate their ability to implement a
performance improvement system that improves health care outcomes.
Trained examiners thoroughly review each application to determine
if the center has met the demands of the criteria.
The 2024 awards will be presented "Delivering Solutions 24," the
AHCA/NCAL's 75th National Quality Award Convention & Expo
October 6-9, 2024.
