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.

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, Nantucket Cottage Hospital demonstrates average mortality rates across all measured aspects. The hospital also boasts an average emergency room wait time, with patients typically being seen and treated within 2-3 hours. Notably, the hospital excels in effectively treating conditions such as pneumonia, thereby minimizing the need for patients to return. However, it is important to note that the hospital does face challenges in maintaining low infection rates. Overall, these findings provide an unbiased review of the quality of care at Nantucket Cottage Hospital.
