How it’s earned

A clinic must demonstrate four requirements consistently and at a measurable level:

  • Advanced clinical training — Legacy's highest level, structured and verified against a clear standard
  • Superior outcomes — Results tracked against peer benchmarks, with consistent performance in fall risk mitigation, functional mobility and maximizing independence
  • Standardized clinical processes — The same standard of care, regardless of clinician or day
  • Evidence-based interventions — Care decisions driven by research, applied proactively

Earned, not given. Our Centers of Excellence set the benchmark for quality, accountability, and patient-centered care.
