Banner Churchill Community Hospital was one of only four hospitals in Nevada to earn a 4-star rating in quality and safety from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) as part of the federal agency’s annual performance report.
The CMS’s hospital star rating provides patients with the important information they need to compare hospitals and make informed decisions about care. The 4-star rating for Banner Churchill was based on 100 rigorously tested measurements in quality and safety, such as patient experience, timeliness and effectiveness of care, complication rates and other factors.
“We are proud to have achieved this high rating,” Banner Churchill Community Hospital CEO Rob Carnahan said. “Our physicians, employees and volunteers are committed to delivering a high standard of care and giving our best every day to the communities we serve, and this honor affirms that.”
