“The methodology for the rankings has evolved to include more aspects of quality in addition to reputation, which is extremely meaningful to our employees and affiliated physicians,” says Rhonda Abbott, PT, FTPTA, MBA, senior vice president and CEO of TIRR Memorial Hermann. “Our return to No. 2 confirms our focus on patient outcomes and the quality of care we strive for with all of our patients who need rehabilitation. While the rankings sometimes fluctuate from year to year, they tell the story that we at TIRR Memorial Hermann are leaders in rehabilitation through our focus on research, education, clinical care and advocacy.”
The annual U.S. News Best Hospitals rankings and ratings, now in their 32nd year, are designed to assist patients and their doctors in making informed decisions about where to receive care for challenging health conditions or for common elective procedures. The U.S. News Best Hospitals methodologies in most areas of care are based largely on objective measures such as risk-adjusted survival and discharge-to-home rates, volume and quality of nursing, among other care-related indicators.
