HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We are excited to ring in 2015 with our ongoing commitment providing safe and quality care, and this year announce earning The Joint Commission's Gold Seal of Approval® for Home Care Accreditation!

HONOLULU (January 2, 2015) - Attention Plus Care today announced that it has earned The Joint Commission's Gold Seal of Approval® for Home Care Accreditation by demonstrating continuous compliance with its performance standards. The Gold Seal of Approval® is a symbol of quality that reflects an organization's commitment to providing safe and effective care.

Attention Plus Care underwent a rigorous on-site survey in November 5, 2014. During the survey, compliance with home care standards reflecting key organization areas was evaluated, including the provision of care, treatment and services, emergency management, human resources, individual rights and responsibilities, and leadership. "When individuals engage a home care provider they want to be sure that provider is capable of providing safe, quality care," said Margherita Labson, RN, M.S., executive director, Home Care Accreditation program, The Joint Commission. "As the home care setting becomes increasingly popular, it is important that home care providers are able to demonstrate that they are capable of providing safe, high quality care. Accreditation by The Joint Commission and the gold seal serve as an indication that the organization has demonstrated compliance to these recognized standards of safe and quality care."

"We are very pleased to receive accreditation from The Joint Commission, and having maintained this distinction since 1993. "That is a long time for any organization, and especially important for health care providers in Hawaii." added Wesley Chang, Chief Administrative Officer of Attention Plus Care. The Joint Commission's home care standards are developed in consultation with health care experts, providers and researchers, as well as industry experts, purchasers and consumers. The standards are informed by scientific literature and expert consensus to help organizations measure, assess and improve performance. "Chances are the hospital you rely on in Hawaii is Joint Commission accredited." said Chang.

Founded in 1951, The Joint Commission seeks to continuously improve health care for the public, in collaboration with other stakeholders, by evaluating health care organizations and inspiring them to excel in providing safe and effective care of the highest quality and value. The Joint Commission accredits and certifies more than 20,500 health care organizations and programs in the United States, including hospitals and health care organizations that provide ambulatory and office-based surgery, behavioral health, home care, laboratory and nursing home services.
