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:
Based on the CMS HCAHPS patient ratings and quality data, Dorminy Medical Center demonstrates average overall patient satisfaction. Patients have given positive feedback regarding the cleanliness of the hospital. Additionally, the hospital's mortality rates are average across all measured areas. The average ER wait time at Dorminy Medical Center is 2-3 hours, with patients being seen and treated within this timeframe. However, it is important to note that the hospital faces challenges in effectively treating conditions such as pneumonia, resulting in patients needing to return to the hospital. Furthermore, Dorminy Medical Center struggles with high infection rates.
