Summit is taking its CMS recognition to the next level!
The facility has earned a 5-Star Overall Rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the additional Gold Trophy designation recognizing high-performing nursing homes.
So, what does it mean to receive both distinctions?
CMS's traditional Five-Star Quality Rating System measures nursing home performance across health inspections, staffing, and quality measures. These categories help individuals and families better understand how facilities perform in key areas of operation.
The Gold Trophy is an additional recognition that goes beyond the traditional 5-Star Overall Rating.
According to CMS, high-performing nursing homes receiving this designation have fewer safety-related citations, higher staffing levels, and meet other quality indicators. It recognizes facilities that satisfy additional performance criteria established by the agency.
For Summit, this is an accomplishment worth celebrating. Earning a 5-Star Overall Rating is a significant milestone, and receiving the Gold Trophy designation makes the recognition even more meaningful.
These achievements offer an opportunity to acknowledge the ongoing efforts, attention to standards, and commitment to performance that contribute to a facility's success.
We are proud to celebrate Summit and this exciting recognition.
Congratulations to the Summit team! Five stars are impressive. Earning the Gold Trophy is taking excellence one step further.
