BALTIMORE, July 16,
2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Mercy Medical Center has
been recognized by U.S. News & World Report's "Best Hospitals"
rankings for 2024-2025. In Common Adult Procedures and Condition
Ratings, Mercy earned High Performing status in Hip Replacement and
Knee Replacement, as well as Colon Cancer Surgery.
Our doctors, nurses, and support
staff...deserve enormous credit for their efforts in earning this
ranking." -- David N. Maine, M.D.,
President and CEO, Mercy Health Services, Mercy Medical
Center
U.S. News & World Report rankings are based on data from
nearly 5,000 medical centers and survey responses from more than
30,000 physicians. Fewer than a third of all hospitals received any
high-performing rating. An overall rating of high performing
indicates a hospital was significantly better than the national
average in a given procedure or condition.
"It's extremely gratifying to learn that, once again, Mercy has
been recognized in U.S. News' annual 'Best Hospitals' edition. Our
doctors, nurses, and support staff in Orthopedics and Joint
Replacement, The Institute for Digestive Health and Liver Disease,
and all who played a role deserve enormous credit for their efforts
in earning this ranking. Mercy continues to be true to the mission
of the Sisters of Mercy, delivering quality care in a compassionate
setting," said Dr. David Maine,
President and CEO of Mercy Health Services, Mercy Medical
Center.
Dr. Maine noted that this recognition by U.S. News follows a
number of recent accolades for the nearly 150-year-old Catholic
hospital, including being ranked as the top hospital in
Maryland for social responsibility
by the Lown Institute, a nonpartisan think tank advocating for a
just and caring U.S. healthcare system; and being named one of
America's 50 Best Hospitals for Surgical Care according to research
released by Healthgrades, the leading resource that connects
consumers, physicians and health systems.
The Best Hospitals Specialty rankings and Procedures &
Conditions methodologies factor objective measures such as
risk-adjusted mortality rates, patient experience, level of nursing
care and how successfully each hospital helps patients get back
home.
A university-affiliated teaching hospital, Mercy Medical Center
is nationally recognized with Magnet status for nursing excellence.
Founded in 1874 by The Sisters of Mercy, Mercy is home to the
acclaimed Weinberg Center for Women's Health & Medicine and the
