HopeWest announced its hospice program achieved a deficiency-free result in its most recent Hospice Certification and Licensing Survey conducted by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.

The unannounced survey included a thorough review of operations, patient care and compliance standards, HopeWest said in a news release.

A team of CDPHE surveyors conducted the audit, including detailed reviews of patient charts, staff interviews and visits to patient homes and HopeWest’s Ferris Hospice Care Center.

The team of surveyors reported zero deficiencies and praised HopeWest for its professionalism, strong teamwork, exceptional volunteer program and patient-centered care.

“We are deeply grateful to our entire team for their expertise and continued commitment to providing exceptional care,” said Deneen Silva, president and CEO of HopeWest. “Thank you to every team member for making HopeWest a trusted presence in the lives of so many.”
