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.

Quality of care at WakeMed North is pretty good. Would definitely recommend to a loved one. Low ratios allow personalized care. Staff genuinely loves what they are doing.
Highly recommend hospital for mother/baby care, complete confidence in department. Would not recommend residency clinic for OB/GYN services.

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, it is important to note that Franciscan Health Indianapolis demonstrates an average overall patient satisfaction. However, the hospital is faced with challenges such as a long ER wait time, with an average wait of over 3 hours before patients are seen and treated. Additionally, it is noteworthy that the hospital struggles in effectively treating conditions like heart attacks and pneumonia, resulting in a higher likelihood of patients needing to return to the hospital for further care.
