(KNZA)--As part of National Rural Health Day, Sabetha Community Hospital announced Monday it has been recognized with a 2023 Performance Leadership Award for excellence in Quality & in Outcomes. Compiled by the Chartis Center for Rural Health, the Performance Leadership Awards honor top quartile performance (i.e., 75th percentile or above) among rural hospitals in Quality, Outcomes and/or Patient Perspective.
“We are deeply honored to receive this award for excellence in quality and also for outcomes. This recognition is a testament to the dedication and expertise of our entire team, who are committed to providing the highest level of care to our patients. We are committed to continuous improvement and will continue to strive to provide even better care in the years to come,” says Chief Executive Officer, Dr. James Longabaugh.
The Performance Leadership Awards are based on the results of the Chartis Rural Hospital Performance INDEX®, the industry- most comprehensive and objective assessment of rural hospital performance. INDEX data is relied upon by rural hospitals, health systems with rural footprints, hospital associations and state offices of rural health around the country to measure and monitor performance across several areas impacting hospital operations and finance.
“Wherever we go in rural America, we witness first-hand the commitment, determination, and compassion with which rural hospitals serve their communities. Rural healthcare truly is mission-driven,” said Michael Topchik, National Leader, The Chartis Center for Rural Health. “This National Rural Health Day, let us recognize the efforts of this year- Performance Leadership Award winners and all those driven to deliver high quality care throughout rural communities.”
Sabetha Community Hospital is a 25-bed critical access facility providing acute care including obstetrics, skilled care, home health, swing bed and hospice, and a broad range of outpatient services.
