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.

We have not started to research this hospital, but you can see what comments are for hospitals with similar patient satisfaction rates:
Nurses Say it Straight
These comments are not from nurses at Graham County Hospital but are instead nurse comments from hospitals with a similar size and quality ratings for illustration of what feedback from nurses at a hospital of this size and quality might be.
Depends on reason for care, aware of patient needs, advise against if necessary care not provided, multiple factors involved.
Excellent handling of stroke patients in the Emergency Department, but delays and lower quality care in med-surg floors.
The hospital is okay, not too bad, but challenging due to frequent staff turnover, particularly in the ED.
Recommended for cardiac events, but limitations in resources can cause delays, particularly for non-cardiac cases. Top-rated for cardiac care in Kansas City.
Better care in ICU/critical care, new grads in med/surg, low staffing ratios affect quality of care.
Highly recommend hospital, especially cardiology department. Shortage of staff, but not as dire as it seems.
Hospitals aren't what you think they are, the reality is quite complex.
Good care, recommend St. Luke's for accommodating patients, no discharge without proper follow-up.
Nurses stretched thin, skimping on personalized care. Admit for general issues, but if acutely ill, things might get missed. Ship loved ones elsewhere.
