About the Customer Approved Award

Only twenty Independent Living, Assisted Living, or Skilled Nursing organizations earned this remarkable distinction. Winners were selected according to the results from NRC Health’s 2018 Resident and Family Experience Survey. 

To qualify, organizations must have a high percentage of respondents willing to recommend their locations to friends and family. This measure is known as the Net Promoter Score (NPS), and it strongly correlates with both customer satisfaction and enduring loyalty.
