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 Grand Island Regional 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.
Excellent quality of care with skilled team, teamwork, collaboration, and adequate staff including residents, interns, and nursing students.
Exemplary care; competent nurses and doctors. I would choose St. Joseph for receiving care.
Reservations about care quality, uncomfortable bringing family, residents still learning, physicians don't listen, not enough time to educate, shortages, concerned about safety.
Depends on what they're looking for. Strong CT, cardiothoracic program. AHA-certified with stroke treatments, but all done via telehealth. Uncomfortable with Stanford consultations. Not for pediatrics.
Overall, the nurse does not recommend the ED due to issues and disagrees about referring loved ones because of the quality of care.
Unsafe practices, old and disconnected systems, poor safety practices. Don't go there, I wouldn't refer my loved ones to Dameron Hospital.
Good care, great nurses, but policies need improvement. Challenging finding them; better accessibility needed for prompt access.
"I'd be good in my ICU, but med-surg floors have high turnover rate. MedSurg nurses lack comprehensive care, history knowledge. Don't want family in towers due to safety."
Excellent care, 10/10. Personal experience confirms exceptional care, great staff, and high quality service at this hospital.

Confident in bringing adult loved ones, but iffy about MedSurg unit due to overworked nurses and inconsistent care.
Summary of Hospital-Reported Data
