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:
Based on the CMS HCAHPS patient ratings and quality data, AHS Hospital Corp. demonstrates both strengths and areas for improvement in the quality of care provided. Patient satisfaction is low overall, with significant challenges reported regarding staff responsiveness to patient needs. Concerns have also been raised by patients regarding the ability to have a quiet rest while in the hospital. In terms of mortality rates, the hospital performs at an average level across all measured areas. The average ER wait time at this hospital is 2-3 hours, indicating that patients are seen and treated within a reasonable timeframe. However, the hospital falls short in effectively treating conditions such as pneumonia, leading to a higher rate of patients needing readmission. On the positive side, the hospital performs above average in preventing infections among patients.
