Vernon Homes' Executive Director Receives Leadership Award

Bradford Ellis, Executive Director of Vernon Homes, was awarded the 2016 Eli Pick Facility Leadership Award by the American College of Heath Care Administrators. This is the second year in a row that he has received the award for his leadership of Vernon Homes’ nursing facility Vernon Green.

The award recognizes administrators whose teams have achieved a level of organizational quality that few others have been able to reach. Ellis was one of only 280 nursing home administrators nationwide who received the award and one of just 247 recipients whose award included virtual recognition, meaning that he provided leadership throughout the entire award year.

The ACHCA believes that nursing home excellence is a reflection of leadership excellence, and selects winners based on: high scores on three years of skilled nursing facility survey data, including health, fire and complaint surveys; top-quartile performance on designated quality measures; 80% or greater facility occupancy; and zero citations for “Special Focus Facility” status (a government term applied to under-performing care facilities).

Ellis said, “Receiving this award is a great honor. It reflects on the involvement and commitment of the entire team at Vernon Home, because the criteria for receiving it are all based on objective quality care data. The families of our residents can consider it more proof of the good care we take of their loved ones.”

The awards keep coming

In July 2015 Vernon Green was awarded the Nursing Home Quality Award from Vermont's Department of Disabilities, Aging and Independent Living.  We were one of five out of Vermont's 37 nursing homes to earn this prestigious award.  Thanks to the entire team at Vernon Green!

Voted the Best of the Best - again!

Vernon Green Nursing Home received another Best of the Best Award as Vermont's top nursing home.  That makes 16 years in a row!  And Vernon Hall received its eighth straight Best of the Best in the assisted living category.  Thanks to each VACH team member who made this double string of success possible!

What They Say

“ We had our name in at other places and had driven by Meetinghouse Village many times before we came to see it. We loved it immediately. Everyone was pleasant and kind. We moved in right away. People in our building are nice to be with and check on each other to make sure we're OK. We are happy to be here. ”
