Castleview Hospital’s Greg Cook, CFO, Grant Barraclough, ACNO, Terri Watkins, CNO, and Mark Holyoak, CEO, accept the honor of being named on of Top 20 Rural Community Hospitals in the United States.
Press Release
Castleview Hospital was recently named to the Top 100 Rural Community Hospitals out of 2,157 hospitals and, after further scrutiny by the national rural health association, Castleview received notification that they are now in the Top 20 Rural Community Hospitals in the United States. This is all based upon achieved success and overall performance, including patient safety and quality outcome indicators.
The Top 20 Rural Community Hospital winners are those hospitals who have achieved success in the overall performance based on a composite rating from eight indices of strength: inpatient market share, outpatient market share, quality, outcomes, patient perspectives, costs, charges and financial stability.
This group was selected from iVantage’s Top 100 Rural Community Hospital list, released earlier this year.
“Castleview Hospital is proud of the efforts of its physicians and staff who have contributed to our hospital achieving this designation,” said Mark Holyoak, Castleview Hospital CEO. “Our results as a top health care provider means our community can count on us to deliver the services they need now and in the future. I would also like to thank the community for their continued support, I know we could not have achieved this without them.”
“We are very proud of this accomplishment,” said Lamar Guymon, Chairman of Castleview Hospital’s Board of Trustees. “Our dedicated staff, providers and volunteers work together to provide seamless quality care to our patients.”
Castleview Hospital’s administration team were able to attend an awards ceremony on May 11, to receive the award.
