Families and friends ask me, “What constitutes a quality hospital?” I tell them it boils down to patient and family satisfaction. Typically, one should expect a hospital to have a patient satisfaction rate greater than 90%. But, as most people suspect, the answer goes further than that. For example, what about the medical staff? Nurses and other staff will usually perform to a level of expectations set by the physicians. Therefore, a demanding and respected team of doctors is the first and most important building block in operating a hospital. Other elements of a good hospital include a well-trained and professional clinical and non-clinical staff, a clinical team focused on patient and family needs, and a clean and safe facility. There is a lot more that could be said, but as is the case in most service industries, customer satisfaction and outcomes are most important to consumers.

At Ruston Regional Specialty Hospital, the latest patient satisfaction scores surpass 95%. This means, that upon discharge more than 95% of our patients and their families say they would recommend our facility to their family members and friends. We are extremely proud of this accomplishment. We believe it reflects, not only the great physicians on staff at the hospital, but also the dedication and commitment of our staff.

If you, your loved one, or anyone else you know, is seeking advanced medical services, we encourage you to consider Ruston Regional Specialty Hospital. We believe you will be happy that you did.
Thank you.
