The publication identified the Best Nursing Homes for 2019-2020 and also released the nursing home finder by ranking more than 15,000 homes across the nation.

Tonya Moyer, Rolling Fields Interim Administrator, said the recognition was due to the hard work and dedication of all of the Care Partners at Rolling Fields.

The achievement of being recognized as one of the Best Nursing Homes of 2019-2020 is a reflection of the work going on each day, Mark Smeltzer, Heritage regional manager of skilled nursing operations, shared.

“I’m proud of the Care Partners here and how their hard work every day embodies the mission, vision, and values that Heritage has at all of our locations” Smeltzer stated.“Heritage is proud to come alongside Rolling Fields as they live out the Heritage motto “Caring. It’s Our Calling” every single day.
