Novant Health Brunswick Medical Center is proud to be named among the country’s top performing hospitals in The Joint Commission’s Annual Report on Quality and Safety 2013. Brunswick Medical Center is one of only 1,099 hospitals nationwide to be named a Top Performer.
Recognition is given in several specific categories, and Brunswick Medical Center received Top Performer recognition in five categories: surgical care, heart failure care, pneumonia, stroke and immunization.
“We’re extremely pleased that our medical center is being recognized nationally for quality performance in five separate categories,” said Shelbourn Stevens, medical center president. “This is a tremendous achievement that speaks to the expertise of our physicians and staff. It’s their ongoing dedication to achieving the best outcomes for our patients that drives us to be the best.”
The Top Performer designation is based on performance related to accountability measures and evidence-based care processes, which are closely linked to positive patient outcomes. Brunswick Medical Center demonstrated that it provides evidence-based interventions in the right way and at the right time.
Two additional Novant Health Hospitals earned recognition as a Top Performer: Novant Health Medical Park Hospital and Novant Health Charlotte Orthopedic Hospital were recognized for surgical care.
