Three Ascension hospitals are included in a listing of HealthGrades America’s 50 Best Hospitals for 2015. The report was issued Feb. 25 by the independent healthcare ratings organization.
Listed hospitals demonstrated superior and sustained clinical quality over an 11-year time period, based on an analysis of more than 140 million Medicare patient records.
The Ascension hospitals included in the “50 Best” are Alexian Brothers Medical Center and St. Alexius Medical Center, part of Alexian Brothers Health System, Arlington Heights, Illinois; and Providence Hospital, Southfield, Michigan, part of St. John Providence Health System.
“I want to congratulate the associates and physicians at these hospitals for achieving this well-deserved recognition,” said Patricia A. Maryland, Dr.PH, President, Healthcare Operations and Chief Operating Officer, Ascension Health. “Much of the value of Ascension lies in the ability of our facilities in all of our Ministry Markets to learn from and support each other as part of our one integrated ministry. The success and achievements of any of our health ministries reflect the strength and commitment of the entire organization.”
