Kentucky Dominicans
Sansbury Care Center Wins Facility of the Year Award

Sansbury Care CenterST. CATHARINE, KY –September 22, 2008 -- Sansbury Care Center, located on the grounds of the Dominicans of St. Catharine Motherhouse, was recently selected as the Central District Facility of the Year by the Kentucky Association of Heath Care Facilities.

“This is validation of the facility being a quality facility in the state and validation of everyone’s hard work,” said Darlene Herald, administrator. “More important than the physical appearances of our facilities, we are interested in the internal attitudes of all who live and work here. We are striving towards a person-centered care culture where our residents’ needs, choices and quality of care are paramount.”

The judges’ decision was based 25 percent on the written application, 25 percent on customer service evaluations and 50 percent on an on-site visit. Sansbury Care Center will compete against the other four district winners in Kentucky for the State Facility of the Year. The winner will be announced Nov. 13, 2008.

Founded in 1961, Sanbury Care Center is a 61-bed licensed skilled and personal-care facility providing long-term quality care for sisters and lay women.

Dominicans of St. Catharine, Kentucky are the oldest active Dominican congregation in the United States, founded in 1822 in Springfield, Ky.
