HVCH receives national recognition for patient satisfaction

LOGAN – Hocking Valley Community Hospital today announced it has been recognized by iVantage Health Analytics and the National Organization of State Office of Rural Health (NOSORH) for overall excellence in Quality and Patient Satisfaction reflecting top quartile performance among all rural acute care hospitals in the nation.

“We are honored to receive this award. Every employee at HVCH strives daily to deliver the highest quality healthcare to our patients,” said Julie Stuck, CEO and President.  “For 50 years that has been our standard, and will continue as we move into the next 50 years.  This award serves to make it evident that Hocking Valley Community Hospital is Leading the Way to a Healthier Community in Hocking County,” she says.

The rankings have been determined by the Hospital Strength INDEX®, the industry’s most comprehensive and objective assessment of rural hospital performance. In partnership with NOSORH, iVantage Health Analytics has developed a data-driven program designed to identify excellence across a broad spectrum of indicators relevant to hospital performance and patient care. The Hospital Strength INDEX captures performance metrics for all rural and Critical Access Hospitals. Leveraging data from public data sources, INDEX aggregates data from 66 individual metrics into three major categories and nine pillars to derive a single strength overall rating for each facility.

“These top quartile performers should take great pride in this recognition. It showcases their commitment to continuous performance analysis and improvement. On this occasion of National Rural Health Day, it’s an honor to celebrate their achievement as they continue to serve their communities despite the many market, regulatory and financial pressures they face.” said Michael Topchik, National Leader of the Chartis Center for Rural Health.
