Retirement Home Receives Accreditation

The Armed Forces Retirement Home has been accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities – Continuing Care Accreditation Commission. It marks the first time the home, with facilities in Washington, D.C., and Gulfport, Miss., has received such accreditation from the organization, a non-profit group that promotes quality services and treatment at nursing home and retirement facilities. The accreditation will be up for renewal in 2013. The Armed Forces Retirement Home serves more than 1,000 military retirees and veterans.
