River Garden Hebrew Home has again been awarded the Governor’s Gold Seal Award for Excellence in Long-Term Care – for the 10th time since the award was created in 2002. The award, bestowed by Florida State Legislature, recognizes Florida’s premier nursing homes that have exceptionally high standards and display excellence in quality of care. The award was presented by Kimberly R. Smoak, Deputy Secretary of Health Quality Assurance at the Agency for Health Care Administration, to Dr. Lawrence Goldberg, River Garden Hebrew Home board president, during the River Garden Senior Services annual meeting on Sunday, March 26.

“River Garden has long-been a recipient of awards for excellence, and we appreciate every acknowledgement,” says Mauri Mizrahi, River Garden CEO. “Our staff dedicates themselves every day to being the best and they deserve a round of applause for this success.”

Currently, there are more than 700 nursing homes in the state of Florida, and only 10 are recognized with the Governor’s Gold Seal Award for Excellence in Long-Term Care.  River Garden and one other facility have maintained the multi-year recognition since its inception in 2002.
