Salem, IN:  Salem Crossing, a member of American Senior Communities (ASC), has been recognized as a 2024 Silver – Achievement in Quality Award recipient by the American Health Care Association and National Center for Assisted Living (AHCA/NCAL). The award is the second of three distinctions possible through the AHCA/NCAL National Quality Award Program, which recognizes organizations that meet progressively rigorous standards of performance to further improve the lives of residents and staff in long term care.   

Salem Crossing joins 13 other ASC communities in receiving Silver status this year. There are also 14 other ASC locations who have previously achieved and continue to maintain AHCA/NCAL Silver status. ASC communities currently account for 60% of all Indiana Silver recipients.   

CEO Steve Van Camp said, “Achieving Silver status makes all of us at ASC incredibly proud of the teams at each of this year’s recipient communities. Reaching this level and maintaining it takes hard work and a strong focus on continuous quality care, all day, every day. It requires a united effort from each staff member and cannot be accomplished without dedication to teamwork and adherence to our core values.”  

The National Quality Award Program has three progressive levels: Bronze, Silver, and Gold. At the Silver level, recipients previously met criteria for the Bronze award and can now move on to the final and most prestigious level of the program, the Gold – Excellence in Quality Award. Trained examiners review each application to determine if the communities have met the demands of the criteria.    

The National Quality Awards will be presented during Delivering Solutions 24, the AHCA/NCAL Convention & Expo, October 6-9, 2024, in Orlando, Florida. ​
