Cordova facility recognized for quality long term care

Cordova Community Medical Center’s long-term care facilities have been recognized for excellence by Mountain-Pacific Quality Health, the Medicare quality innovation network, quality improvement organization for Alaska.

Mountain-Pacific awards three different levels of recognition, and Cordova was one of seven Alaska long-term care facilities to be honored.

Heritage Place in Soldotna and Sitka Community Hospital’s long-term care facility also received quality excellence awards.

The four facilities recognized for quality achievement were Denali Center long-term care in Fairbanks, PeaceHealth Ketchikan Medical Center New Horizons Traditional Care, Petersburg Medical Center long-term care and Wrangell Medical Center long-term care.

All seven facilities participate in the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services National Nursing Home Quality Care Collaborative through Mountain-Pacific Quality Health.

Awards are based on each facility’s composite score, their licensure with Alaska’s state survey agency and their certification with CMS.
