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:
Abbott Northwestern Hospital is known for its high overall patient satisfaction. However, it is important to note that the hospital has a long average ER wait time of over 3 hours for patients to be seen and treated. On the positive side, the hospital performs well in treating conditions like heart attacks and heart failure. Patients treated for these conditions are less likely to return to the hospital. However, the hospital does not perform as well in treating conditions like pneumonia, as patients treated for pneumonia are more likely to have to return to the hospital. On a brighter note, Abbott Northwestern Hospital excels in ensuring that patients do not acquire infections during their stay, performing above the national average in this aspect.
