The Bear Valley Community Healthcare District (BVCHD) continues its commitment to excellent patient care, winning four BETA awards.
The District was recognized in four categories at BETA Healthcare Group’s annual Symposium Friday including BETA HEART, Employee Safety & Wellness Initiative, Quest for Zero and HQI Cares.
To receive BETA awards, all members of participating hospital’s teams complete rigorous online training and education. BVCHD has been awarded several BETA awards over consecutive years and continues to surface as a leader in the field of patient safety and staff education.
“The value you the BETA Heart program has on improving and maintaining patient safety cannot be overstated,” said Evan Rayner, CEO of BVCHD. “Very few hospitals in the state have accomplished what we’ve accomplished through this program and I’m very proud of our team.”
