ALAMEDA,
Calif., Oct. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Alameda
Hospital Skilled Nursing Facilities are ranked #1 in Alameda County and 14th in
California, among nursing homes
with more than 150 beds. That's according to Newsweek's 2025
ranking of America's Best Nursing Homes.
Alameda Hospital Skilled Nursing Facilities include Park Bridge
Rehabilitation and Wellness, Alameda Hospital Sub-Acute Unit, and
South Shore Rehabilitation and Wellness in Alameda, CA. They are part of Alameda Health
System (AHS), the public safety-net health system, integrated
health care provider, and medical training institution in
Alameda County.
"I'm grateful to our wonderful team members who care for our
residents like they would their own loved ones," said Richard Espinoza, chief administrative officer
of post-acute services at AHS. "Congratulations for this
achievement and recognition of your compassion and commitment to
the wellbeing of all the residents in our care."
Newsweek's annual ranking of America's Best Nursing Homes is
designed to guide families in their search for high-quality,
long-term care options. It is developed in partnership with
Statista, a global leader in data and market analysis. This year's
list was compiled based on an analysis of more than 14,000 nursing
homes across the 25 states with the highest concentration of
facilities. The rankings were determined by evaluating nursing
homes across four key pillars, including performance data, peer
recommendations, accreditations, and resident
satisfaction.
"I'm proud that Alameda Health System serves all in our
community regardless of our patient's and resident's ability to pay
for services. Newsweek's national ranking illustrates what we at
Alameda Health System already know: the public safety-net health
system not only provides accessible health care, we also provide
exceptionally good health care," said James
Jackson, CEO of AHS.
According to Statista, the median monthly cost of a private room
in a nursing home is more than $13,000— a prohibitively expensive burden for
most families. AHS has four skilled nursing facilities that provide
long-term or temporary residence for patients undergoing medically
necessary rehabilitation treatment. All four facilities serve the
safety-net communities in Alameda
County with standards of care that are on par with the best
nursing homes in the country.
