The American Health Care Association and National Center for Assisted Living (AHCA/NCAL) National Quality Award Program is a progressive, three-step process that recognizes long-term care providers that have demonstrated a commitment to improving the quality of care for seniors and individuals with disabilities. Each progressive step requires a more detailed, more comprehensive demonstration of quality integration and performance.

To qualify, Gardant communities began the quality improvement process by assessing their mission, characteristics and key challenges while also demonstrating an ability to implement performance improvement plans. The Bronze Award recognizes those providers for developing a foundation to begin a continuous journey of quality improvement.

“We are extremely proud of the accomplishment of a large portion of our portfolio receiving NCAL’s Bronze Quality Award this year,” says Rod Burkett, CEO of Gardant Management Solutions. “This recognition is due to the dedicated efforts provided by the staff and management teams at these communities throughout the year, and it is indicative of their dedication to serving our residents and committing to ongoing quality improvement.  We are extremely thankful every day for their compassion and dedication!”

Heritage Woods of Rockford and John Evans of Pekin were awarded the Bronze National Quality Award in 2019 and are still in active status at that level. You can read their article here

    My Mom, siblings and I would like to visit and apply at your Cambridge Living Community in O’fallon IL. Mom and Dad are 88 years old (mom soon to be 89). We’re hoping to see you soon at Cambridge. I’ll do all I can to fill out info on them and talk with someone who could help me through this process at Cambridge. Gosh bless you for your serving ministry.
