OLNEY HAMILTON HOSPITAL
Olney, TX, November 21 2024 – As part of National Rural Health Day, OLNEY HAMILTON HOSPITAL today announced it has earned a 2024 Performance Leadership Award for excellence in QUALITY. Compiled by The Chartis Center for Rural Health, the Performance Leadership Awards recognize top quartile performance (i.e., 75th percentile or above) among rural hospitals in Quality, Outcomes and/or Patient Perspective.
Michael Huff, CEO, Olney Hamilton Hospital reports that this is such an honor for our hospital and community. With the construction of our new facility this award helps us showcase the expectations of our expanded growth which will provide higher quality standards that our patients and community deserve.
The Performance Leadership Awards are based on the results of the Chartis Rural Hospital Performance INDEX , a comprehensive and objective framework for assessing how rural hospitals are performing. INDEX benchmarks are relied upon by rural hospitals, health systems with rural footprints, hospital associations, and state offices of rural health to measure performance across multiple areas impacting hospital operations and finance.
“The Performance Leadership Awards capture the commitment, diligence, and innovation with which America’s rural hospitals approach the delivery of care within their communities,” said Troy Brown, Network Consultant, The Chartis Center for Rural Health. “It’s a tremendous honor to be able to recognize the efforts of this year’s award winners and celebrate their achievement as part of National Rural Health Day.”
