Cornerstone VNA Achieves 5-Star Patient Satisfaction Rating

 

Rochester, NH – Cornerstone VNA, a trusted local nonprofit home health and hospice provider, is pleased to share that the agency’s Home Care program has achieved a 5-star rating for patient satisfaction by the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The survey asks patients (or their family or friends) about their home health care, and if they would recommend Cornerstone VNA to someone else. The patient satisfaction survey is one of two ratings CMS shares on their Medicare Compare website that allows patients and families to research local home health providers based on quality and patient satisfaction ratings.

Cornerstone VNA is one of five home health care agencies in the State of New Hampshire that has received a 5-star patient satisfaction rating. Quality and Education Director, Lisa Romanovitz, RN, BSN, shares, “Our team is dedicated to providing an outstanding patient experience, and they have worked so hard to ensure our patients feel supported in their care, every step of the way. I am extremely proud of their amazing work.” Home Care Director, Stacey Genest, RN, MSN, WCC, adds, “We are honored to achieve this important distinction, and it motivates our team to continue delivering high-quality, compassionate care.”

An important contributor to a high patient satisfaction rating is the number of specialized services provided by the Cornerstone VNA team. Many clinicians have received certifications in a variety of specialty care services, such as wound care, lymphedema, vestibular, IV therapy, chronic care management, and more. By offering a high level of care in the home, Cornerstone VNA is well-prepared to meet the complex care needs of its most vulnerable patients. Jennifer Ufkin, RN, MSN, President/CEO, shares, “A 5-star patient satisfaction rating is a significant achievement, and is a testament to the work of our incredible team to ensure our patients and their family members receive the best, and most advanced care, at home.”

Cornerstone VNA currently serves Rockingham, Strafford, Belknap and Carroll Counties in New Hampshire and York County in Maine. The team at Cornerstone VNA provides award-winning care and support through five distinct programs: Home Care, Hospice Care, Palliative Care, Life Care-Private Duty, and Community Care. For 112 years, Cornerstone VNA has been committed to bringing services to people of all ages so that families can stay together at home, even when facing the challenges of aging, surgical recovery, chronic or life-threatening illnesses or end-of-life care.
