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.

Very good care, small hospital, limited services, up-to-date facilities
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.
Better care in ICU/critical care, new grads in med/surg, low staffing ratios affect quality of care.
Quality of care good, but understaffed like all hospitals.
Exceptional compassion towards patients and families. Highly recommend St. Joseph hospital for loved ones, dedicated to addressing concerns.
Hospitals aren't what you think they are, the reality is quite complex.
Quality of care is great, staff is likable.
Care is satisfactory; quality can vary depending on nurse and unit, but we genuinely strive for the best despite challenges.
