Quality of Care Recognition

Inova Fair Oaks Hospital earns a “Top Performer” distinction

The Joint Commission, the leading accreditor of healthcare organizations in the United States, late last year named Inova Fair Oaks Hospital a Top Performer on Key Quality Measures.

The hospital was recognized for exemplary performance in using evidence-based clinical processes that are shown to improve care for certain conditions. It was recognized for its achievement on the following measure sets: heart attack, heart failure, pneumonia and surgical care. The ratings are based on an aggregation of accountability measure data reported to The Joint Commission during the 2012 calendar year.

“We understand that what matters most to patients is safe, quality care,” says John Fitzgerald, CEO, Inova Fair Oaks Hospital. “That’s why Inova Fair Oaks Hospital has made a commitment to positive patient outcomes through evidence-based care processes.”

Inova Fair Oaks Hospital is one of 1,099 hospitals in the United States earning the distinction of Top Performer Key Quality Measures for attaining and sustaining excellence in accountability measure performance.
