The Advanced Breast Center at Wellington Regional Medical Center has again been recognized as a certified participant in the National Quality Measures for Breast Centers Program, a national benchmark for excellence in breast health care. This certification reflects the center’s commitment to delivering the highest standard of breast care to patients in Palm Beach County.
This is the second consecutive year that the Advanced Breast Center has achieved this distinction.
The NQMBC Program, developed by the National Consortium of Breast Centers, offers a performance measurement system for breast centers to assess and compare the quality of care provided. Facilities track over 40 quality indicators, enabling them to evaluate their services against national benchmarks and peer institutions of similar size and scope.
“Achieving certified status through the NQMBC reflects our team’s unwavering focus on patient-centered care, advanced diagnostics and treatment excellence,” a Wellington Regional Medical Center representative says. “We are proud to be among the leading breast centers nationwide recognized for quality, innovation and commitment to our community.”
Established in 2005, the NQMBC Program has grown to include breast centers in 45 states, and its quality indicators have been validated through multiple peer-reviewed publications.
The Advanced Breast Center’s certification reflects outstanding achievement in multiple measures, including early detection, diagnostic accuracy, treatment timeliness and patient satisfaction. As breast health evolves with advancements in technology and treatment protocols, maintaining high standards of care remains essential.
Located within Wellington Regional Medical Center, a 235-bed acute care hospital, the Advanced Breast Center provides comprehensive breast health services, including mammography, ultrasound, biopsy and patient navigation. The hospital has served Palm Beach County since 1986 and is accredited by The Joint Commission.
