We are thrilled to share that eight Trinity Health Senior Communities have received "Gold Trophy" icons on their Nursing Home Compare profiles. The graphic indicates the Centers' for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS) designation for high performers among nursing homes that qualify for CMS' Risk-Based Survey program. A Gold Trophy icon appears alongside each of these skilled nursing communities' Care Compare star rating.
The Gold Trophy is shown on roughly 12% of U.S. nursing homes' profiles, and while it is not the only indicator of quality, it's certainly a point of pride! Congratulations Bellbrook, Glacier Hills' Care and Rehabilitation Center, The Neighborhoods of White Lake, Fraser Villa, St. Joseph of the Pines Health Center, Mercy Circle, Mary's Meadow, and MercyOne Dyersville Care Center!

Trinity Health Senior Communities is proud to announce that one of its Michigan leaders -- Colette Belcourt, executive director at Bellbrook in Rochester Hills -- has been selected as a trainer for the September 22 Michigan Joint Provider Surveyor Training themed "Protecting Vulnerable Populations; Abuse Prevention & Ethical Compliance." Colette will serve as a presenter for the discussion of "Preventing Resident-to-Resident Abuse." This module will provide professional caregivers with critical information about federal regulatory requirements, effective strategies and lessons learned in preventing resident-to-resident abuse in long-term care settings.
A Licensed Nursing Home Administrator, Colette has overseen Bellbrook's operations for two years. She excels in creating exceptional resident and colleague experiences at the Rochester Hills Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Short-Term Rehabilitation community. Colette holds an M.B.A. in healthcare administration. We are grateful that The Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs has recognized her expertise and given her the ability to share it in a plenary session that will benefit older adults and those who serve them in senior living and care settings.

We are very grateful to Catholic Health World reporter Julie Minda and Michigan-based photographer Chris Stranad for capturing the spirit and images of our Trinity Health Senior Communities Mission Fairs.

The events offer dialogue, activities, tchotchkes and celebrations related to the senior care campuses' values.
