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.

Limited services. Room for improvement. Not recommended. Great for Strokes and ICU, but not ER.
Depends on reason for care, aware of patient needs, advise against if necessary care not provided, multiple factors involved.
Striving for best care, focusing on patient satisfaction, proud of being recognized as top 100 hospital, only one in Tracy.
Quality of care good, but understaffed like all hospitals.
Better care in ICU/critical care, new grads in med/surg, low staffing ratios affect quality of care.
Emergency Dept recommended for better care, floor nurses less welcoming due to heavy patient load.
Decent quality of care in our hospital.
Quality of care is great, staff is likable.
Nurses stretched thin, skimping on personalized care. Admit for general issues, but if acutely ill, things might get missed. Ship loved ones elsewhere.

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 CMS HCAHPS patient ratings and quality data, Fayette County Hospital provides average care across all measured mortality rates. However, the hospital stands out for its effectiveness in treating conditions such as pneumonia, resulting in low readmission rates.
