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.

Nurses Say it Straight
These comments are not from nurses at Parkland Health 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.
Limited services. Room for improvement. Not recommended. Great for Strokes and ICU, but not ER.
Amazing care, amazing staff. Great discussions with physicians. High level of care and attention. Unable to do certain procedures.
Excellent handling of stroke patients in the Emergency Department, but delays and lower quality care in med-surg floors.
Limited services, specialized areas best, but not for having a baby due to lack of maternity specialist.
Exceptional compassion towards patients and families. Highly recommend St. Joseph hospital for loved ones, dedicated to addressing concerns.
Highly recommend hospital, especially cardiology department. Shortage of staff, but not as dire as it seems.
Hospitals aren't what you think they are, the reality is quite complex.
Quality of care is average to above average.
Smaller hospital allows for more personalized care and attention to patients due to fewer patients to care for.

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:
Parkland Health Center has an average overall patient satisfaction rating, according to the CMS HCAHPS patient ratings and quality data. The hospital demonstrates an average performance in every measured mortality rate. However, one area of concern is the long wait time in the emergency department, where it takes an average of over 3 hours for patients to be seen and treated. On the positive side, the hospital excels in treating conditions such as heart failure, effectively preventing patients from needing to return to the hospital. Notably, Parkland Health Center faces challenges in controlling infection rates, indicating the need for improvement in this area.
