CAPE CORAL, Fla. - Floridant -- Gulf Coast Village and The Preserve, two senior living communities owned by Volunteers of America National Services (VOANS) have earned The Joint Commission's Gold Seal of Approval® for Nursing Care Center Accreditation by demonstrating continuous compliance with its performance standards. The Gold Seal is a symbol of quality that reflects a health care organization's commitment to providing safe and quality patient care.
The communities recently underwent a rigorous, unannounced onsite review. The process involves a team of Joint Commission reviewers evaluating compliance with nursing care center standards spanning several areas, including emergency management, environment of care, infection prevention and control, leadership, medication management, rights and responsibilities of the individual, and more.
The Joint Commission's standards are developed in consultation with health care experts and providers, measurement experts and patients. They are informed by scientific literature and expert consensus to help health care organizations measure, assess and improve performance. The surveyors also conducted onsite observations and interviews.

"As a health care accreditor, The Joint Commission works with health care organizations across care settings to inspire safer and higher quality of care that is more equitable and compassionate," says Ken Grubbs, DNP, MBA, RN, executive vice president of Accreditation and Certification Operations and chief nursing officer, The Joint Commission. "Through collaborating on innovative solutions and evidence-based resources and tools, The Joint Commission helps drive improvement while maintaining accountability through our leading survey methods and standards. We commend Gulf Coast Village and The Preserve for their commitment to advance safety, quality, equity and compassion for all patients."
Once the decision to apply for Joint Commission accreditation for Gulf Coast Village and The Preserve came to fruition, the Performance Excellence Team (PET) spent countless hours becoming familiar with each of the 250 individual standard elements by reviewing and assigning responsibilities and developing a tracking system for each category with a focus on the intent of each standard. By doing so, the team was able to identify areas of compliance or areas of opportunity to improve. The teams worked to develop a plan to achieve compliance in identified areas in preparation for onsite surveys, such as policies, systems and processes, and education. These areas were then implemented in day-to-day work and continue to be monitored throughout each term in preparation for continued accreditation and the communities' dedication to quality that reflects their overall commitment to meeting high performance standards.
