Dignity Health – Glendale Memorial Hospital and Health Center has been named by U.S. News & World Report to its 2023-24 Best Hospitals as a high performing hospital for congestive heart failure, heart attack, kidney failure, pneumonia and stroke. This is the highest distinction a hospital can earn for U.S. News’ Best Hospitals Procedures & Conditions ratings.

The annual Procedures & Conditions ratings are designed to assist patients and their doctors in making informed decisions about where to receive care for challenging health conditions or elective procedures.

“High quality care for every patient we serve is our focus and priority,” said Jill Welton, president of Glendale Memorial Hospital and Health Center. “These awards represent every physician, nurse and staff members’ contribution in the patient journey and make these distinctions possible.”

U.S. News evaluated more than 4,500 hospitals across 15 specialties and 21 procedures and conditions. Hospitals awarded a “Best” designation excelled at factors such as clinical outcomes, level of nursing care and patient experience.

“For 34 years, U.S. News has provided data-informed rankings to help patients and their doctors find the best hospital to treat their illness or condition,” said Ben Harder, chief of health analysis and managing editor at U.S. News. “Fewer than half of evaluated hospitals earned any High Performing rating.”
