DOVER, NH –Wentworth-Douglass Hospital has been named on Newsweek’s 2024 list of ‘America’s Best Neurological Hospitals’, published last month.
“At Wentworth-Douglass, we take immense pride in our staff's unwavering devotion to delivering the highest standards of neurological care, and this recognition reflects the outstanding dedication, expertise, and compassionate care provided by our remarkable team,” said Darin Roark, president and chief operating officer.
This is the first year the publication has announced “America’s Best Hospital” rankings for the neurology specialty. The rankings recognized the top 175 neurological hospitals.
"This recognition underscores our team’s commitment to advancing neurological care and innovation, ensuring our patients experience the best possible outcomes," added Dr. Gary Usher, medical director at the Center for Neurosciences at Wentworth-Douglass. “Our success is driven by a highly collaborative group of professionals, particularly within our stroke program, epilepsy monitoring unit, and our neurosurgery partnership with Massachusetts General Hospital.”
The rankings were compiled by market and consumer data company Statista, utilizing four data sources: a nationwide online survey, hospital quality metrics, results from patient experience surveys, and Statista’s patient reported outcome Measurers (PROMS) implementation survey.
“These facilities have delivered remarkable results for patients with complex, sometimes life-threatening conditions. Their inclusion here highlights their achievements and serves as a guide for individuals needing such care,” said Nancy Cooper, global editor in chief, on Newsweek’s website.
