Community Health & Wellness Receives Two Health Resources and Service Administration Awards

9/14/2021

 
​Torrington, CT - Community Health & Wellness Center (CHWC) has received two awards from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), an agency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services that oversees the country’s more than 1,300 health centers.  HRSA is the primary federal agency for improving health care for people who are geographically isolated, and/or economically or medically underserved. ​
A Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC), CHWC was one of six health centers in Connecticut to receive a Uniform Data System (UDS) Quality Award for “Advancing Health Information Technology (HIT) for Quality Improvement.”  UDS is an annual reporting system that provides standardized information about the performance and operation of health centers delivering health care services to underserved communities and vulnerable populations.
 
CHWC also received an award recognizing its Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) status. The Patient-Centered Medical home is a model of care that puts patients at the forefront of care. PCMHs build better relationships between patients and their clinical care teams, and practices that earn recognition have made a commitment to continuous quality improvement and a patient-centered approach to care.
​
“We are extremely honored to have received these two awards,” said Joanne Borduas, CEO of CHWC.  “The pandemic has been a challenging time, and I am proud of our dedicated staff for the critical role they play in enabling us to provide compassionate, high-quality, patient-centered care. They consistently go above and beyond, making us a recognized center of excellence that offers integrated healthcare services to the Northwest region of Connecticut.”
