Honored with the 2024 AHCA/NCAL Silver Quality Award

We are thrilled to announce that Scenic Nursing and Rehabilitation Center has been honored with the 2024 AHCA/NCAL Silver Quality Award, a national recognition that places us among the highest-performing skilled nursing facilities in the United States.

What is the AHCA/NCAL Silver Quality Award?

The American Health Care Association and National Center for Assisted Living (AHCA/NCAL) Quality Award Program is one of the most respected recognition programs in long-term and post-acute care. The Silver Award represents the second of three levels in this prestigious program and is granted to organizations that demonstrate:

  • A systematic, results-oriented approach to organizational performance
  • Evidence of continuous quality improvement across multiple care areas
  • Positive trends in clinical outcomes and resident experience
  • Strong alignment between leadership goals and operational performance

Achieving Silver level recognition requires a detailed self-assessment, third-party review, and demonstrated improvement over time. It is not simply an application — it is proof of sustained excellence.

What This Means for Our Residents and Families

Receiving the 2024 AHCA/NCAL Silver Quality Award confirms what our residents and families already know: Scenic Nursing and Rehabilitation Center delivers care that goes beyond compliance. We are committed to exceptional outcomes, respectful and dignified care, and a community where residents feel at home.

This recognition is particularly meaningful because it reflects input from across our entire organization — nursing, therapy, dietary, social services, activities, housekeeping, and administration. Every department contributed to earning this award.

Our Journey to Quality Excellence

The Silver Award builds on our foundational commitment to the Baldrige Excellence Framework. It follows our earlier Bronze Award achievement and reflects years of dedicated work by our leadership team and frontline caregivers. We are proud of this milestone and are already working toward the practices and outcomes that reflect even higher performance levels.

A Nationally Recognized Facility in Jefferson County, MO

As a Silver Quality Award recipient, Scenic joins a select group of nursing facilities nationwide that have earned this distinction. Combined with our Top 10 Missouri ranking and Newsweek Best Nursing Homes 2025 designation, this award reinforces our position as one of the premier skilled nursing and rehabilitation centers in Missouri.
