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.

Amazing care, amazing staff. Great discussions with physicians. High level of care and attention. Unable to do certain procedures.
Limited services, specialized areas best, but not for having a baby due to lack of maternity specialist.
Overall, good job, caring nurses, lack of medical oversight impacting care quality.
Recommended for cardiac events, but limitations in resources can cause delays, particularly for non-cardiac cases. Top-rated for cardiac care in Kansas City.
Unsafe, understaffed, business-focused. Recommend the Plaza, better care, staffing ratios the same, residents, fellows, attending physicians at Barnes Jewish.
Hospitals aren't what you think they are, the reality is quite complex.
Care is satisfactory; quality can vary depending on nurse and unit, but we genuinely strive for the best despite challenges.
