Demarais was one of 247 recipients who received the Eli Pick Facility Leadership Award with virtual recognition. This award recognizes the administrator of record who provided leadership throughout the award year. Eligibility for this award is based on three years of skilled nursing facility survey data, including the Health, Fire (Life Safety) and Complaint Surveys, as well as top quartile performance on designated Quality Measures. The criteria also included an 80-percent or greater facility occupancy and a three-year avoidance of a Special Focus Facility status.
“I could not do it without my team,” Demarais said. “The team at ChaseHealth makes my job easier. It is the team that needs to accept this award, not me.”
