“We are proud to remain among the top 15 hospitals in Washington, DC. The largest joint replacement center in the area, our orthopedics department continues to maintain its well-known excellence. We strive for quality of service each and every day, providing the best possible care to our patients,” said Deborah Addo, CEO, Inova Mount Vernon Hospital.
Inova Mount Vernon Hospital also ranked among the top 20 hospitals in Virginia.
For 2014-15, U.S. News evaluated hospitals in 16 adult specialties and ranked the top 50 in most of the specialties. Just three percent of the nearly 5,000 hospitals that were analyzed for Best Hospitals 2014-15 earned national ranking in even one specialty.
U.S. News also recognizes hospitals that perform nearly at the level of their nationally ranked peers and represent valuable regional sources of quality care.
“The data tell the story – a hospital that emerged from our analysis as one of the best has much to be proud of,” says U.S. News Health Rankings Editor Avery Comarow. “A Best Hospital has demonstrated its expertise in treating the most challenging patients.”
U.S. News publishes Best Hospitals to help guide patients who need a high level of care because they face particularly difficult surgery, a challenging condition or extra risk because of age or multiple health problems. Objective measures such as patient survival and safety data, adequacy of nurse staffing levels and other data largely determined the rankings in most specialties.
The specialty rankings and data were produced for U.S. News by RTI International, a leading research organization based in Research Triangle Park, N.C. Using the same data, U.S. News produced the state and metro rankings.
The rankings are freely available at http://health.usnews.com/best-hospitals and will appear in the U.S. News “Best Hospitals 2015” guidebook, available in August.
All five of Inova’s hospitals were recognized again this year in the top 15 best hospitals in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area and top 20 in Virginia. To learn more about Inova Mount Vernon Hospital, visit www.inova.org/imvh.
