GREENSBORO, Oct 13, 2009 (News-Topic - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- FMS | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Fresenius Medical Care North America, operator of the nation's leading network of dialysis facilities, has named eight of its Western North Carolina dialysis facilities "Centers of Excellence" for achieving the highest standards in patient care in 2008.

While all Fresenius Medical Care dialysis clinics share the company's UltraCare' mission of delivering excellent care to patients, the company's annual Center of Excellence awards recognize those clinics nationwide that have delivered the highest levels of quality patient care, based on objective measurements of the patients' status. This year's Center of Excellence award winners in Western North Carolina area are:

Fresenius Medical Care Albemarle; Fresenius Medical Care Catawba Valley (Conover); Fresenius Medical Care Greensboro Kidney Center; Fresenius Medical Care Lenoir; Fresenius Medical Care East Greensboro; Fresenius Medical Care NW Kidney Center; Fresenius Medical Care Belmont; Fresenius Medical Care Gastonia/ Lowell (Gastonia); Fresenius Medical Care Southwest Greensboro (Jamestown).

The Fresenius center in Lenoir is located at 322 Mulberry Street SW..

"Congratulations to the medical directors, nurses and clinical staff at these deserving Centers of Excellence. Their dedication to delivering the highest possible level of care can help our patients be more successful on dialysis so they can live their lives to the fullest," said Allen Mills, regional vice Ppresident for Fresenius Medical Care. "These facilities truly embody the UltraCare mission of the entire Fresenius Medical Care organization of delivering excellent care to patients through innovative programs, the latest technology, continuous quality improvement and a focus on superior customer service."

Fresenius Medical Care has established high standards of clinical quality, in keeping with those published by the Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) of the National Kidney Foundation. Each year, fostering a focus on continuous quality improvement, the company recognizes its facilities that are noteworthy in their high achievement of clinical quality outcomes; Certificates of Excellence are awarded based on how the facility performs on multiple objective measures of dialysis clinical quality. The company considers outcome measures such as dialysis adequacy, control of anemia, nutritional status, vascular access, patient satisfaction and transplant education.
