Whether you are there for state-of-the-art rehabilitation or you’re there for the long run, Shragi and his team make sure the facility if professionally run and the families and residents are happy. This award only proves that.”
According to the ACHCA, the criteria of this award are carefully reviewed and updated each year, to assure those top‐performing facilities are duly recognized and that the award continues to raise the bar for organizational performance.
