Decatur Memorial Hospital (DMH) has been recognized by U. S. News & World Report for high-quality care in its annual ranking of hospitals.
DMH received special recognition for knee replacement and leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma.
“Decatur Memorial Hospital has a long-standing commitment to providing high-quality, compassionate care to the patients and families we serve,” said Tanya Andricks, DMH president and CEO. “We are incredibly proud to see that dedication recognized, and this honor reflects the hard work, expertise and heart our colleagues bring to patient care every day.”
“A hospital named among the U.S. News Best Hospitals has demonstrated its commitment to high-quality care, especially in achieving successful outcomes for patients,” said U.S. News’ Managing Editor and Chief of Health Analysis Ben Harder. “A Best Hospitals recognition reflects consistent top-tier medical care to its community.”
Springfield Memorial Hospital, which like DMH is part of Springfield-based Memorial Health, was also recognized by U.S. News & World Report this year.
The U.S. News Best Hospitals rankings serve as a starting point for patients and families, who should consult with their personal physicians when making specific healthcare decisions.
To determine the Best Hospitals, U.S. News analyzed each hospital’s performance based on objective measures such as risk-adjusted mortality rates, preventable complications and patient experience. The Best Hospitals Specialty rankings methodology and Procedures & Conditions ratings methodology
measure patient outcomes using data from over 800 million records of patient care.
