Trinity Hospital Twin City Receives National Recognition for Performance Leadership in Patient Outcomes & Patient Satisfaction
Dennison, OH, November 17, 2016 – Trinity Hospital Twin City today announced it has been recognized by iVantage Health Analytics and the National Organization of State Office of Rural Health (NOSORH) for overall excellence in Patient Outcomes and Patient Satisfaction reflecting top quartile performance among all rural acute care hospitals in the nation.
“Our staff works diligently to ensure that each patient who comes through our doors has an excellent patient experience, and we are truly grateful and honored to receive this recognition,” shared Joe Mitchell, hospital president.
The rankings have been determined by the Hospital Strength INDEX®, the industry’s most comprehensive and objective assessment of rural hospital performance. In partnership with NOSORH, iVantage Health Analytics has developed a data-driven program designed to identify excellence across a broad spectrum of indicators relevant to hospital performance and patient care. The Hospital Strength INDEX captures performance metrics for all rural and Critical Access Hospitals. Leveraging data from public data sources, INDEX aggregates data from 66 individual metrics into three major categories and nine pillars to derive a single strength overall rating for each facility.
“These top quartile performers should take great pride in this recognition. It showcases their commitment to continuous performance analysis and improvement. On this occasion of National Rural Health Day, it’s an honor to celebrate their achievement as they continue to serve their communities despite the many market, regulatory and financial pressures they face.” said Michael Topchik, National Leader of the Chartis Center for Rural Health.
