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.

Striving for best care, focusing on patient satisfaction, proud of being recognized as top 100 hospital, only one in Tracy.
Very comfortable for family in ER, but strongly urge going somewhere else for higher level of care.
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.
Trust the quality of care, feel safe here receiving treatment in our hospital.
Quality of care is average to above average.
Depends on the person they see.
Recommended for cardiac events, but limitations in resources can cause delays, particularly for non-cardiac cases. Top-rated for cardiac care in Kansas City.
Limited services, specialized areas best, but not for having a baby due to lack of maternity specialist.
"Not recommended. Quality of care lacking, unsure if due to younger/newer staff or specific training."

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:
Based on the CMS HCAHPS patient ratings and quality data, Lincoln Surgical Hospital fares averagely in all measured mortality rates. However, it is important to note that the hospital does face challenges with relatively high infection rates. Further analysis is necessary to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the quality of care provided at Lincoln Surgical Hospital.
