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.

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:
South Miami Hospital has received high overall patient satisfaction ratings, indicating that patients are generally pleased with their experience. However, the hospital has some areas of concern. There have been multiple significant high-patient-mortality concerns, which may raise some alarm. Additionally, the hospital has a long average ER wait time of over 3 hours for patients to be seen and treated. On the positive side, the hospital is commendable in treating conditions like heart attacks, as patients do not have to return for further care. However, the hospital struggles in treating conditions such as heart failure and pneumonia, as patients may require readmission. On the bright side, South Miami Hospital excels in ensuring that patients do not acquire infections during their stay.
