We treat patients as they want and deserve to be treated, and the results of that day-to-day focus show.”

“I am thrilled for Riddle to receive this honor,” said Shelly Buck, DNP, MBA, president, Riddle Hospital. “It is a tribute to our physicians, nurses and every member of our team. It is wonderful to be recognized by our peers for the outstanding work and dedicated care consistently delivered at Riddle every day.”
Healthgrades analyzed the most recent three years of data available on medical outcomes (2018-2020). It is based on Medicare medical claims for 4,500 hospitals nationwide in 31 specialties.
If all hospitals performed similarly to those in the top 250 (representing the nation’s top 5%), 160,000 lives potentially could have been saved, according to the organization.
