Lomita Post-Acute Care Center Nationally Recognized in 2014 by Medicare and US News & World Report for Skilled Nursing Facilities
Long Beach, CA (PRWEB) December 31, 2014 -- More than 3 million Americans spent at least part of 2013 in a skilled nursing facility, or nursing home and similar numbers are expected as we close out 2014. Individuals and their families often encounter difficulty in choosing the right nursing home. Frequently asked questions including, "Where will I receive the highest quality care?" "Where will I be treated like a resident, not just a patient?" and "Where is the cleanest nursing home with the best food?" weigh heavily on their minds.
In an effort to lighten the burden of such an important choice, U.S. News and World Report recently released its fifth annual "Best Nursing Homes" report. Using data from the federal agency that sets and enforces standards for nursing homes, U.S. News awarded the "Best Nursing Home" designation to homes that recently earned an overall rating of five stars, highlighting the top nursing homes in each state and nearly 100 major metropolitan areas. The ratings cover more than 15,000 nursing homes nationwide and are freely available at http://www.usnews.com/best-nursing-homes. Medicare likewise rated each nursing home with one to five stars based on separate measures of quality of care, health-inspections record, and level of nurse staffing.
At the top of the list is Lomita Post-Acute Rehab, a facility serviced by North American Health Care, Inc. Medicare has given all 35 facilities serviced by North American Health Care a five-star rating. Statistically, less than 23% of all skilled nursing facilities in the United States will achieve this level of success. No other similar organization in the United States has consistently achieved this level of patient care.
“Lomita Post-Acute believes in providing care centered on service,” said Logan Essig, Administrator of Lomita Post-Acute Care Center. “We are fortunate to have an outstanding team that is dedicated to providing an uplifting and healing environment for the patients here.”
Residents are highly complimentary. “My family now know that we made the right decision to bring our Mother to Lomita Post-Acute Rehabilitation Center. I praise you and your staff for being caring, efficient and always putting your best effort in making sure that my mother and all the patients in your facility are provided the best health care service,” and “Your Physical Therapy Department is “Number One!” They do an outstanding job with my Wife. Your nursing staff is very caring and supportive and the Administrative staff is very knowledgeable and friendly; they take care of whatever may arise and keep us informed” are some of the recent testimonials that speak to the care and culture of Lomita Post-Acute Rehabilitation Center.
