National Sleep Therapy Receives 2012 Best of Concord Award

Our attention to patient success and customer focus led National Sleep Therapy to be selected for the 2012 Best of Concord Award in the Medical Equipment & Supplies category by the Concord Award Program! It is a rewarding and motivating recognition.

Each year, the Concord Award Program identifies companies that it believes have achieved exceptional marketing success in their local community and business category. These are local companies that enhance the positive image of small business through service to their customers and community. These exceptional companies help make the Concord area a great place to live, work and play.

Various sources of information were gathered and analyzed to choose the winners in each category. The 2012 Concord Award Program focused on quality, not quantity. It also sought companies that have shown the ability to use their best practices and implemented programs to generate competitive advantages and long-term value. Winners were determined based on the information gathered both internally by the Concord Award Program and data provided by third parties.
