Terrebonne General recognized for patient safety, emergency care

Terrebonne General Health System has been named one of America’s Best Hospitals for Patient Safety and Emergency Care by the Women’s Choice Award.
These awards recognize Terrebonne General for being one of the top hospitals in the nation that have demonstrated the highest level of quality care to their patients, with a special focus on the female experience. Terrebonne General ranked above the national average in patient experience, patient safety, and quality.
“Receiving recognition in these two categories highlights our team’s dedication to providing the safest, highest-quality care and exceptional patient satisfaction,” said Phyllis Peoples, president and CEO of Terrebonne General.
“I applaud our physicians and staff for their daily commitment to delivering outstanding care and congratulate them on this remarkable achievement.”
The methodology used to select Terrebonne General as one of the Best Hospitals for Patient Safety is unique in that it evaluates 13 Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ measures of infections and complications, Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and System survey results along with primary research about women’s health care preferences.
