Hopedale Medical Complex honored for excellence in quality of care, top performance.

The Illinois Critical Access Hospital Network (ICAHN) recently recognized Hopedale Medical Complex for its ongoing commitment to exceptional quality of care, during a ceremony held November 14th at the I Hotel and Conference Center, Champaign, IL.
As part of the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy Medicare Beneficiary Quality Improvement Program (MBQIP), Hopedale Medical Complex and other critical access hospitals were asked to voluntarily participate in four defined domains of quality outcomes. These four domains include: Patient Safety/Inpatient; Patient Engagement; Care Transitions; and Outpatient Measures.
“Often, in rural hospitals, having a devoted staff member to abstract and submit this data can be both time-consuming and burdensome,” said Angie Charlet, ICAHN Director of Quality, Educational Services, and Compliance. “Hopedale Hospital realizes how important quality of care and an engaged staff is for its patients…From its top leadership on throughout the facility, each strives for continued quality on a daily basis, and that is what we are celebrating today.”
Hopedale Medical Complex was recognized for demonstrating the most improvement over quarters in any MBQIP measure or domain.
“We are very proud of our team for achieving this level of excellence in health quality,” said Mark Rossi, HMC COO. “This is truly a team effort that recognizes our dedication to delivering a healthcare experience that our patients and staff can be proud of.  We thank ICAHN for all its help during this process.”
