Partners and Affiliates
Partners
These are independent entities in which ZHSG actively participates in management, drives product development and maintains equity. They were created specifically to support SNFs as they adapt to an industry transformed by healthcare reform.
Affiliates
Researching innovative solutions and sharing our findings with our clients is our fiduciary duty; we are not brokers or salesmen. Such arrangements are antithetical to our core values of professional integrity and objectivity. Instead, we form alliances with SNF vendors to improve and create new programs consistent with our general service offerings. These are not equity partnerships, but co-development initiatives we introduce only if they qualify as ‘best-in-class’.
Associations
Zimmet Healthcare is proud to support the following industry groups:
National Associations
The American Health Care Association is a non-profit federation of affiliate state health organizations, together representing more than 11,000 non-profit and for-profit nursing facility, assisted living, developmentally-disabled, and subacute care providers that care for approximately one million elderly and disabled individuals each day.
For the past 50 years, the LeadingAge mission has been to make America a better place to grow old and we believe our members — not-for-profit providers of care and services — are the ones to make this happen. Never before has the need for a multispecialty, interdisciplinary approach to aging services more important than it is today.
The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) is an individual membership professional organization representing more than 90,000 member physical therapists (PTs), physical therapist assistants (PTAs), and students of physical therapy. APTA seeks to improve the health and quality of life of individuals in society by advancing physical therapist practice, education, and research, and by increasing the awareness and understanding of physical therapy’s role in the nation’s health care system.
The National Association for the Support of Long Term Care (NASL) is a trade association founded in the Fall of 1989 by advocates of professional medical services to long term care facilities. NASL now represents the legislative and regulatory interests of approximately 100 companies providing physical, occupational and speech-language pathology therapies, portable x-ray/EKG and ultrasound; health information technology systems; and products such as complex medical equipment; parenteral and enteral supplies, equipment and nutrients; and additional specialized supplies for long term and post-acute care settings nationally.
Founded in 1962, ACHCA is a non-profit professional membership association which provides superior educational programming, professional certification, and career development opportunities for its members.
Guided by the vision that dynamic leadership forges long term health care services that are desired, meaningful, successful, and efficient, ACHCA identifies, recognizes, and supports post-acute and aging services leaders, advocating for their mission and promoting excellence in their profession.
The American Association of Post-Acute Care Nursing (AAPACN) represents more than 15,000 post-acute care nurses and professionals working in more than 5,175 facilities.
State Associations
The Health Care Association of New Jersey (HCANJ) is a non-profit trade association representing long term care providers who believe that the individuals they serve are entitled to a supportive environment in which professional and compassionate care is delivered. This belief compels HCANJ and its members to advocate for individuals who, because of social needs, disability, trauma, or illness, require services provided in a long term care setting, while also advocating for the long term care provider community.
The Louisiana Nursing Home Association is a non-profit organization representing more than 250 non-profit and for-profit nursing facilities and assisted living communities that care for approximately 30,000 elderly and disabled individuals each day.
