The Health Services and Resources Administration (HRSA) has awarded Vecino Health Centers a 2018 Health Center Quality Leader Award.

The prestigious national award is given to health centers with the best (top 30%) overall clinical performance among all health centers nationally.

“This achievement is a reflection of a commitment to quality by everyone in the organization,” says Dr. Donald Briscoe, Medical Director of Vecino Health Centers. “We take pride in the great care we provide to our patients and communities and we are committed to continue to find ways to become even better.”

HRSA awards recognize the highest performing health centers nationwide. Of the 1,400 community health centers in the nation, Vecino is one of just 373 centers receiving the Quality Leader recognition in 2018.

Congratulations to all staff and board members for your work that made this recognition possible. And thank you to our communities and patients for entrusting Vecino’s Airline Children’s Clinic and Denver Harbor Family Clinic with your family health care.
