Our Certifications
Retreat Healthcare earned the Joint Commission’s Assisted Living accreditation and Memory Care certification in 2024 and was ‘First in State’ for both awards. The Joint Commission signifies many things, with none larger than a devotion to patient safety and quality of care. By earning the Gold Seal of Approval®, Retreat Healthcare programs exemplify their commitment to using best practices to improve safety and quality for their patients, staff and community.
Through the accreditation and certification process, organizations and programs undergo an objective evaluation process to measure, assess and improve performance. The Joint Commission standards focus on patient safety and quality of care to help reduce the risk of errors and allow for continuous improvement.
In collaboration with the National Alzheimer’s Association, The Joint Commission Memory Care certification earned by The Retreat, Retreat Gardens and The Retreat Villas demonstrated the organization’s commitment to quality dementia programs.
The Joint Commission Memory Care Certification encompasses the provision of care and services for residents with memory impacting conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. The goal of memory care is to provide person-centered care that honors lifelong routines and preferences; activity programming that matches the resident’s cognitive level; and alternatives to medication use for managing behaviors. These standards also highlight the importance of providing memory care in a physical environment with features that promote a resident’s ability to maintain the highest level of function and independence possible.
