Team Spotlight: JML Earns National Recognition
Congratulations to JML Care Center for receiving Best Nursing Home accolades from U.S. News & World Report
Say cheese! JML Care Center has a lot to smile about these days. The Falmouth-based nursing home recently earned the U.S. News & World Report designation of Best Nursing Home for 2022-23 for short-term rehabilitation in their annual review of skilled nursing facilities. It’s an elite group. The national accolade is given only to those homes that satisfy U.S. News’ assessment of key services and consistent performance in quality and safety measures.
We recently stopped by the newly remodeled center, located on the Falmouth Hospital campus, to meet up with Executive Director Colleen Pino and the hard-working crews who put their heart and soul into the job day in and day out. As soon as we walked through the front door of the first-class facility, we could sense a welcoming, friendly atmosphere—a place where staff takes pride in caring for a range of medical needs from rehabilitation after a joint replacement to stroke recovery and skilled nursing care.
“I am so thankful for every single one of our employees,” says Pino, who oversees around 150 team members. “Their positive energy and dedication to providing the highest-quality care for our community is so inspiring and it makes me proud to come to work every day.”
Congrats to everyone at JML! Enjoy clicking through the photos of the award-winning staff.
