The Orland Park Health & Fitness Center is pleased to announce that we have achieved recertification by the Medical Fitness Association, the country’s leading organization dedicated solely to medically integrated wellness and fitness facilities. This recertification represents a significant commitment, on the part of the Orland Park Health & Fitness Center, to offer the highest standards of professional expertise and quality programming. The Orland Park Health & Fitness Center is here to help members develop and maintain a healthy lifestyle that minimizes the risk of illness and disease and promote overall wellness.
Medical Fitness Association’s Facility Certification
The Medical Fitness Association’s Facility Certification is the first and only certification offered specifically to facilities in the medical fitness industry—an industry that serves over four million members worldwide. Based on the Association’s internationally recognized Standards and Guidelines for Medical Fitness Facilities, the certification process involves an in-depth, on-site review of a facility’s adherence to a set of prescribed standards and guidelines. The certification process is an integral part of ensuring that facilities provide a high level of quality and safety in the programs and services they deliver in order for them to become fully integrated into the local continuum of healthcare. The Medical Fitness Association Facility Certification is recognized as a mark of excellence in the health and wellness industry.
“As the incidence of chronic disease continues to rise, the need for medical fitness facilities to offer a high standard of programming for the communities they serve is more important than ever,” said David Flench, FACHE, FMFA, President and CEO of the Medical Fitness Association. “Studies have shown that when people maintain an active lifestyle, especially in a safe environment, they reduce the risk of illness down the road. The Orland Park Health & Fitness Center has taken an important step in providing this extraordinary level of care.”
Charmaine O’Sullivan, the Senior Center Director, expresses her immense pride in the team members at Orland Park Health & Fitness Center. She acknowledges their growth and strength during the MFA recertification process, which she witnesses daily. Their commitment to improving lives through delivering excellence in health, fitness, and wellness management to dedicated members and the community is commendable.
