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.

Great learning hospital with supportive team and managers who listen to our concerns. No bad experiences except COVID.
Highly recommend my hospital; strong surgical team in orthopedic and urology specialties, but cardio patients get transferred.
Decline in hospital quality since Adventist Health took over, more confident in ICU, depends on loved one's unit.
Good hospital, no problem with someone going, not as advanced in technology, environment needs updating.
Nursing care exceptional; quality of overall care dependent on assigned provider.
Depends on what they're looking for. Strong CT, cardiothoracic program. AHA-certified with stroke treatments, but all done via telehealth. Uncomfortable with Stanford consultations. Not for pediatrics.
Highly skilled staff and expertise in doctors make Portland Adventist a top choice for quality care.
Safe and compassionate hospital with great nurses and doctors; referred my family there. Patients love how they're treated.
Good care after ER, but CNAs lack motivation, low morale, and provide subpar care without seeming to care.
