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 Missouri Delta Medical Center 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.
Overall, the nurse feels the hospital has good quality of care, a strong sense of family, and knowledge of each other. However, some departments are stronger than others, with the ER currently being the weakest.
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
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.
Limited services, specialized areas best, but not for having a baby due to lack of maternity specialist.
Good hospital, no problem with someone going, not as advanced in technology, environment needs updating.
Nursing care exceptional; quality of overall care dependent on assigned provider.
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:
Missouri Delta Medical Center provides an average level of care based on the CMS HCAHPS patient ratings and quality data. The hospital's overall patient satisfaction is average. In terms of mortality rates, the hospital performs at the average level across all measurements. However, one area of concern is the extended wait time in the emergency room, with patients waiting for an average of over 3 hours to be seen and treated. Additionally, the hospital has faced challenges in maintaining lower infection rates, with higher infection rates being reported.
