Our own Steve Pogge and Kimberly Thorpe hosted the 10th annual Ground Dog Day event in front of a small group of residents. This is a fresh (and adorable) spin on the Groundhog Day tradition. Watch the video for this year’s Ground Dog prediction!

The C&R was recently awarded its 20th star, earning 20 out of 20 stars from the CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services). The rating system features an Overall Quality Rating of one to five stars based on facility performance on three types of performance measures (staffing, health inspections and quality), each of which has its own five-star rating. A perfect score indicates that the C&R stands out among other facilities in the area as one of the best!

“Our team has worked hard to provide our residents with the best possible care. Panorama takes good care of us, and this directly translates into better care for our residents. There are only two other facilities in Washington State that currently have this rating. We are proud of the efforts our whole team has achieved this year. Our goal is to focus on providing the best care possible and the ratings will follow.” -Dennis Wilkerson, C&R Administrator
