These recognitions reflect Straub Benioff’s commitment to deliver consistent, high-quality care and places the medical center in the upper tier of hospitals for specialty care nationwide.
To identify the top hospitals for patient experience, Healthgrades applies a scoring methodology to 10 patient experience measures using Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey data submitted by the hospital’s own patients. Survey questions focus on patients’ perceptions of their hospital care, from cleanliness and noise levels to medication explanations and staff responsiveness. The measures also include whether a patient would recommend the hospital to friends or family and their overall rating of the hospital.
