The Bronze Commitment to Quality Award Is one of three progressive award levels through the National Quality Award Program, which AHCA/NCAL established in 1996. It is based on the core values and criteria of the Baldrige Performance Excellence Program, which is also the foundation of the metric-based AHCA/NCAL Quality Initiative. The Baldrige program helps organizations in different business sectors improve and achieve performance excellence.

"It's rewarding to be recognized with a prestigious quality award that underscores the standards that guide what we do every day," said Randy Bloom, Ph.D., chief operating officer of Tutera Senior Living & Health Care. "Our ongoing YOUNITE initiative is designed to ensure we are continuously asking, listening and responding in ways that are personally meaningful to residents, family members and staff in all our communities across the nation."

Bronze applicants must demonstrate their ability to implement a performance improvement system that improves health care outcomes. Trained examiners thoroughly review each application to determine if the center has met the demands of the criteria.

The 2024 awards will be presented "Delivering Solutions 24," the AHCA/NCAL's 75th National Quality Award Convention & Expo October 6-9, 2024.
