Nemaha County Home Care announces that it has been named to the Top 100 of the 2012 HomeCare Elite™, a compilation of the top-performing home health agencies in the United States. Winners are ranked by an analysis of publicly available performance measures in quality outcomes, process measure implementation, patient experience (Home Health CAHPS), quality improvement, and financial performance.

Marty Fattig, Chief Executive Officer of Nemaha County Hospital, said “This award is a direct reflection of the highly competent and compassionate staff that work for Nemaha County Homecare. They take a great deal of pride in the care their patients receive, and awards like this are a testament to their outstanding work.”
“The 2012 HomeCare Elite winners demonstrate a commitment to providing patient-centered care and serving as leaders in the home health community. Their success offers data-driven proof of being well-managed and high quality care providers to hospitals, managed care organizations, ACOs, and other potential referral partners across the healthcare continuum,” said Susan L. Henricks, President and COO of National Research Corporation, the parent company of OCS HomeCare. “We congratulate Nemaha County Home Care on being one of the top 100 home care agencies in the country.”
“’Quality Care – Every Time’ is more than Nemaha County Hospital’s mission statement to our dedicated Home Care staff,” explained Kermit Moore, NCH Chief Operating Officer. “Jere Gravatt and her staff once again have demonstrated that commitment, dedication, compassion and respect are an award winning formula.”
The HomeCare Elite is the only performance recognition of its kind in the home health profession. The 2012 HomeCare Elite is co-sponsored by National Research Corporation (also known as OCS HomeCare), the leading provider of cross-continuum healthcare metrics and analytics, and DecisionHealth, the publisher of the industry’s most respected independent newsletter Home Health Line. The data used for this analysis were compiled from publicly available information.
