Best hospital for patients with complex, life-threatening or rare conditions; rated highest in NV in eight specialty areas.

US News & World Report publicó recientemente sus rankings de Mejores Hospitales 2021, donde ubicó al Renown Regional Medical Center en el primer puesto para el estado de Nevada. Ningún otro hospital del estado cumplió con sus estrictos estándares para el ranking de 2021.

Las instituciones que componen los rankings de Mejores Hospitales de 2021-22 se seleccionan de entre un conjunto de 4,523 instalaciones, que representan a casi todos los hospitales estadounidenses que brindan atención para pacientes hospitalizados. Los hospitales se evalúan según una amplia gama de condiciones y procedimientos, incluidas 16 áreas de especialidad médica. US News & World Report evaluó 58 hospitales en Nevada. Only one, Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno, NV, met the high U.S. News standards to rank the #1 hospital in the state.

We constantly strive to be among the best in the nation for quality, safety and patient experience," said Tony Slonim, MD, DrPH, FACHE, President and CEO of Renown. "This ranking confirms what the Renown Health team has always been dedicated to - providing the best patient care possible.

"We thank the incredible physicians, nurses, employees and volunteers across our organization for their dedication to excellent patient care. We know that our patients and our community who benefit from our care are the true award winners," said Erik Olsen, FACHE, MHA, CEO of Renown Regional Medical Center. "We applaud the Renown team and our Medical Staff as being not only the best in the state, but among the best in the nation."

Además, el Renown Regional Medical Center tiene una calificación “sobresaliente”, la más alta posible, en ocho procedimientos y afecciones, lo cual lo coloca entre el mejor 10 % a nivel nacional y el de mayor reconocimiento en Nevada para las siguientes áreas de especialidad:

  1. Cancer, including Colon Cancer Surgery and Lung Cancer Surgery;
  2. Cardiology & Heart Surgery, including Heart Failure; Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair; Aortic Valve; Heart Bypass Surgery; Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR); Heart Attack;
  3. Diabetes & Endocrinology, Diabetes;

"The ability to have a positive impact on people's lives through the care we provide, investing in improving the health of our community and working in service to others, is a tremendous gift," said Sy Johnson, MBA, Chief of Staff for Renown. "To be nationally recognized as being a leader in caring for other is a tremendous honor to our entire team."

In an innovative, public-private partnership, Renown Health and the University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine recently established Nevada's first integrated health system to advance health and health care through world-class medical education, clinical research and patient care.

"We are humbled by this national recognition," says Thomas Graf, MD, Chief Clinical and Quality Officer for Renown. "Our goal is to produce the greatest value by working with physician partners to deliver care of highest clinical quality. Renown has a national reputation for delivering excellent care using approaches that are creative, innovative and maximize technology, and it is exciting to see the team recognized for their extraordinary contributions across the medical center and in eight specialty areas including cancer care, cardiac care, surgery and neurosciences."

A hospital's score is based on multiple data categories, including Patient Outcomes and Experience (48.2%), Professional Recognition (36.1% of score), including endorsements by respected national organizations demonstrating high standards, and Key Programs, Services and Staff (15.7% of score), for care of challenging patients demanding hands-on attention and highly specialized expertise. Higher numbers suggest better survival odds, fewer complications and more patients treated. Los hospitales calificados como sobresalientes eran significativamente mejores que el promedio nacional. Hospital rankings are determined by an extensive data-driven analysis combining performance measures in three primary dimensions of healthcare: structure, process and outcomes. The data source for most structural measures is the American Hospital Association (AHA) Annual Survey.

US News & World Report selected Renown South Meadows Medical Center as the #1 hospital in 2020.

Renown Health has been recognized by several national organizations for excellence and quality. Awarded by the American College of Surgeons for the 30th year, Renown Regional Medical Center is northern Nevada's only designated Level II trauma center. Renown Regional ganó el premio America's 250 Best Hospitals Award™ (2021) por estar entre el mejor 5 % del país en brindar calidad clínica de forma constante.
