Locally Trusted.
Nationally Recognized.
Fewer Than 100
Out of roughly 30,000 assisted living communities nationwide, fewer than one percent have earned Joint Commission accreditation.
Senior Star is one of them.
Senior Star’s campus communities have earned The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval for Assisted Living and Memory Care*. A voluntary, nationally respected accreditation focused on safety, quality, and continuous improvement.
This recognition reflects the standards behind the everyday moments that matter most.
What does “nationally recognized” mean?
It means an independent organization conducted an on-site review and confirmed our Assisted Living and Memory Care programs meet rigorous national standards for safety, leadership, and quality.
Why does voluntary accreditation matter?
Because it shows an organization chooses to meet higher standards than what is required and commits to continuous improvement, not just baseline compliance.
How common is Joint Commission accreditation in assisted living?
Out of approximately 30,000 assisted living communities in the United States, fewer than one percent have earned Joint Commission accreditation. The accreditation is voluntary and reflects a commitment to meeting rigorous national standards.
Should Joint Commission accreditation be a deciding factor when choosing senior living?
Joint Commission accreditation should be one of several factors to consider. It provides independent confirmation that care systems meet nationally recognized standards, which can offer added peace of mind when comparing communities.
