2008 Distinguished Hospital for Patient Safety
Award Ranked Top 5% in the Nation for Patient Safety
Provena St. Mary's Hospital has been recognized as a recipient of
the 2008 Distinguished Hospital Award for Patient Safety™. This award is a gold
standard of achievement and excellence in healthcare as our hospital has been
distinguished as one of only 249 providers in the country to receive this
distinction.
The award is an official recognition by HealthGrades®, the
nation's leading source for healthcare quality information. Provena St. Mary's
Hospital is one of only 13 hospitals in the state to receive the award.
To determine which hospitals will be recognized for outstanding
patient safety, HealthGrades conducted independent analyses of more than 5,000
hospitals throughout the United States in 2007. Its examinations are based on 13
of the 20 Patient Safety Indicators that have been established by the Agency for
Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). This data ranges from infection rates to
post-operative hip fractures.
"This award confirms the tremendous value that Provena St. Mary's
Hospital serves as a resource for ensuring the health and well-being of the
families in our community," noted Jeffrey Brickman, FACHE, system senior vice
president and regional CEO of the southwest suburban region. "The fact that
Provena St. Mary's Hospital is rated among the top Hospitals in the state and in
the nation provides everyone with the assurance of access to top-quality
healthcare."
