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:
Parkland Medical Center demonstrates average overall patient satisfaction based on CMS HCAHPS patient ratings and quality data. In terms of mortality rate, the hospital performs at an average level across all measurements. Patients experience an average emergency room wait time, with prompt evaluation and treatment occurring within 2-3 hours. Notably, Parkland Medical Center excels in effectively managing conditions such as heart failure, reducing the need for patients to be readmitted to the hospital. However, the hospital faces challenges with high infection rates, an area requiring further attention and improvement.
