At the KAHSA annual spring meeting and
awards banquet, the Newton Presbyterian Manor was
selected for a 2003 Clinical Care Award. The award
recognized the Manor’s clinical pathways program,
an adaptation of an acute care concept that provides
proven treatment guidelines for primary nurses when
a high risk area develops for a resident. Adoption
of the process has resulted in improving quality indicators
in several areas of treatment.
“These kinds of programs are the
type of quality care and interaction with residents
and families that we strive for throughout our system
of retirement communities,” said William Ward,
president and CEO of Presbyterian Manors of Mid-America.
“The staff of the Newton Presbyterian Manor is
to be commended for its dedication and commitment to
their residents and to the teamwork environment that
has been fostered with employees to make this possible.”
In addition to this award, the Newton
Presbyterian Manor also received recognition deficiency
rating on its annual Kansas Department of Health &
Environment surveys. The Kansas Association of Homes
and Services for the Aging (KAHSA) reports that only
10 percent of not-for-profit retirement communities
in Kansas complete their surveys with no deficiencies
noted.
