World-Class Patient Satisfaction
Mercy Medical Center Mt. Shasta is the recent
recipient of the "Top Performer for Patient Satisfaction" gold
award, presented by Catholic Healthcare West (CHW).
A national survey instrument measures patient
satisfaction indicators at all 45 CHW medical centers, which are
based throughout California, Arizona and
Nevada.
Chuck Gersdorf, Mercy Mt. Shasta's president,
says, "Besides this award, we are ranked in the top 10% of ALL
hospitals in the country for providing world-class patient care. We
are grateful to every employee, physician and volunteer for their
many acts of caring for our patients and the communities we
serve. It's because of our team that we are so highly
ranked."
We consistently strive to provide our patients with the very best
medical and nursing care possible, and believe that the well-being
of the patient's family is an extension of the care we
give.
"Through daily rounding, we learn how well we
are doing or if we need to improve in any area. We take every
comment to heart, and will go the extra mile to try to meet our
patients or their family member's needs," says Morris Eagleman, RN,
Vice President, Patient Care Services. "It's all about truly caring
for others and practicing the 'Platinum Rule' of doing unto others
as they would have you do unto them."
