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:
Tawas St Joseph Hospital consistently achieves high levels of patient satisfaction. Patients have reported that the staff is highly responsive to their needs, ensuring that their concerns are addressed promptly. Additionally, the hospital excels in meeting patients' needs in a timely manner, with staff members being particularly efficient. In terms of mortality rates, the hospital performs at an average level across all measured areas. In the emergency department, patients can expect an average wait time of 2-3 hours, after which they are promptly seen and treated. However, the hospital does face challenges in maintaining low infection rates.
