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 Aspirus Ironwood 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.
Excellent care, 10/10. Personal experience confirms exceptional care, great staff, and high quality service at this hospital.
The hospital is okay, not too bad, but challenging due to frequent staff turnover, particularly in the ED.
Very good care, small hospital, limited services, up-to-date facilities
Limited services, specialized areas best, but not for having a baby due to lack of maternity specialist.
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.
Quality of care is great, staff is likable.
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.

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:
Aspirus Ironwood Hospital has an average overall patient satisfaction rating. The hospital also demonstrates average performance in every measured mortality rate. Furthermore, the hospital maintains an average emergency room (ER) wait time, with patients typically being seen and treated within 2-3 hours. However, Aspirus Ironwood Hospital does not excel in effectively treating conditions such as heart failure to prevent patients from needing to return to the hospital.
