CLEARWATER, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Senior Home Care, the leading provider of home health care solutions throughout Florida and Louisiana, today announced that more than half of its offices in Florida have been named to the 2010 HomeCare Elite™, a collection of the top home health agencies in the United States. Now in its fifth year, the HomeCare Elite identifies the top 25 percent of home health agencies in the United States and further highlights the top 100 and top 500 agencies overall. Winners are ranked by an analysis of performance measures in quality outcomes, quality improvement, and financial performance.
Many of the Florida offices awarded are previous winners, including Port St. Lucie, Boynton Beach, Fort Walton, Miami Lakes and Sunrise.
“The 2010 HomeCare Elite winners continue to demonstrate a commitment to providing their patients with the best possible care while performing at the highest level,” said Amanda Twiss, CEO of OCS HomeCare, the leading provider of homecare information. “We congratulate Senior Home Care on being one of the top home care agencies in the country. In addition, we salute all forward-thinking providers who are already working on measuring and improving their performance using OASIS-C outcomes and process measures and HH-CAHPS results. This important data will also be used in identifying the HomeCare Elite in the future.”
“We are proud of each of the offices that attained this high industry honor,” said Robert Fusco, Chief Executive Officer of Senior Home Care. “It shows an extraordinary amount of expertise, commitment and compassion that our clinicians have for the patients we serve.”
