Boone Memorial Health has been named a 2026 Gold Honors recipient in the West Virginia Hospital Association’s (WVHA) Commitment to Excellence Honors Program. This recognition is one of several honors BMH has received this year, reflecting its continued commitment to quality care, patient safety, and service to the community.
The Commitment to Excellence Honors Program recognizes hospitals across West Virginia for their efforts to strengthen healthcare through quality improvement initiatives and nationally accepted standards of care. The program encourages hospitals to adopt and sustain practices that support better patient outcomes while advancing the health of the communities they serve.
The program offers three levels of recognition: Bronze, Silver, and Gold. Hospitals are evaluated on their engagement in and implementation of initiatives across applicable focus areas. These include responsible antibiotic use, care transitions, emergency preparedness, cybersecurity, influenza vaccination, opioid response, and workplace violence prevention.
Receiving Gold Honors reflects the work that takes place throughout BMH to make quality and safety a daily priority. From clinical teams providing direct patient care to employees supporting hospital operations, each department contributes to creating a safe, supportive environment for patients, visitors, and coworkers.
BMH was recognized alongside fellow recipients at the 2026 WVHA Annual Meeting. The honor highlights the dedication of employees, providers, and leadership who continue to strengthen healthcare services close to home.
As BMH celebrates this recognition among its recent achievements, its focus remains on the people behind every award, the patients and families who place their trust in the organization and the employees who work each day to serve them.
