Page 4 THE VILLADOM TIMES II • March 17, 2010 Business US News and World Report has identified Van Dyk Manor of Ridgewood as one of “America’s Best Nursing Homes” in that magazine’s February 2010 issue. Van Dyk Manor joins a list of only 173 facilities out of over 16,000 nursing homes nationwide to earn this distinction, and is only one of two in New Jersey to receive this recognition. “We are obviously very proud,” said Van Dyk Health Care President and CEO Bob Van Dyk. “For the staff, some of whom have been here for over 20 years, this is recognition for the care they provide and the joy they bring to our residents and their families every single day.” US News and World Report based its rankings on Nursing Home Compare, a ranking program run by the Van Dyk Manor one of ‘America’s Best Nursing Homes’ Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. CMS gives every nursing home that participates in the Medicare and Medicaid programs a rating of one to five stars overall. These ratings are based on zero to five star ratings in three categories: recent survey inspections, nurse staffing, and clinical quality measures, such as pain management, wound care, and patient mobility. Facilities that scored a cumulative total of 14 or 15 stars in the above categories made the US News list. Van Dyk Manor of Ridgewood is a component of Van Dyk Health Care, Inc., which provides the total spectrum of care to senior citizens in Bergen, Passaic, and Essex counties. Started in 1953, Van Dyk Health Care now operates two skilled nursing facilities and two assisted living facilities. All facilities have been recognized by the American Health Care Association as Quality Award recipients, signifying their positions as providers of superior care to seniors. Van Dyk Health Care also offers independent living apartments, home health care, and rehab services.
