The American College of Health Care Administrators (ACHCA) honors Lynn Beede, APRN, FNP-BC, NHA, Administrator of Coos County Nursing Home in Berlin, N.H. with the 2022 Eli Pick Facility Leadership Award. Ms. Beede accepts this award on behalf of the entire Coos County Nursing Home team, “it takes everyone working together to provide the best possible care for our residents.”

Only 3% of facilities nationwide met the initial selection criteria. This year, fifty-seven administrators in 17 states met all eligibility requirements and were awarded the facility leadership award nationally. The leadership award will be celebrated at ACHCA’s Annual Convocation and Exposition scheduled in New Orleans, Louisiana, from March 21 – 24. Based on the premise that facility excellence reflects leadership for the entire 2021 calendar year. Eligibility for this award is based on three years of skilled nursing facility (SNF) survey data, including the Health, Fire Safety, and Complaint Surveys, as well as top quartile occupancy and a three-year avoidance of a Special Focus Facility status.
