CareLuminate does not have nurse interviews for this hospital currently, but is estimating the Nurse Recommendation Score based on the strong relationship between patient feedback and nurse feedback.
How Does CareLuminate Estimate The Nurse Recommendation Score?
With over 1,000 nurses having participated with CareLuminate to date, we have found that the relationship between hospital patient recommendation ratings and nurse recommendation ratings is very strong (p<.001, R-squared = .42).
While the two ratings are often similar, the comments from nurses are extremely important because they show an important 'inside view' into strengths or concerns in a hospital. CareLuminate is working towards offering nurse insights into every hospital in the US.

Nurses Say it Straight
These comments are not from nurses at Homestead Hospital but are instead nurse comments from hospitals with a similar size and quality ratings for illustration of what feedback from nurses at a hospital of this size and quality might be.
Smaller hospital allows for more personalized care and attention to patients due to fewer patients to care for.
Good hospital, not recommended for ED due to lack of support staff. Other hospitals have more resources for safe patient care.
Nurses stretched thin, skimping on personalized care. Admit for general issues, but if acutely ill, things might get missed. Ship loved ones elsewhere.
Great care, concerns about upper floor staff. High turnover, lack of established culture. Limited services, not recommended for certain things.
Quality of care is good overall, but varies by unit.
Excellent care from coworkers, but not enough time for each patient. Common challenge in healthcare. Committed to doing our best.
Great hospital that cares for employees, provides good benefits, and stands out in their commitment to quality care.
Quality of care is average to above average.
Lodi is a small, community hospital with personalized care and a well-rounded viewpoint, due to its diverse culture.

Quality of care on floors not great, but NICU is well-staffed and provides good care. Would recommend going to HCA.
Summary of Hospital-Reported Data
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services requires hospitals to collect and report on hospital quality and patient satisfaction data. While the data can be dated (collected 1 to 4 years ago) the insights are an important view into hospital safety and quality. We looked through all of this data, and here is our summary of what we found:
Homestead Hospital has achieved high overall patient satisfaction, with patients expressing positive views regarding the cleanliness of the hospital. However, when it comes to mortality rates, the hospital is considered average across all measured indicators. One area of concern is the prolonged wait time in the emergency room, where patients are, on average, seen and treated after over 3 hours. Additionally, the hospital is not particularly effective in treating conditions such as pneumonia, resulting in a higher rate of patients needing to return to the hospital for further treatment.
