The Christ Hospital has been named one of America’s 100 Best Hospitals for Patient Experience by the Women’s Choice Award®, America’s trusted referral source for the best in healthcare. The award signifies that The Christ Hospital has been ranked within the top 100 hospitals of similar size based on number of beds.

The methodology used to select America’s 100 Best Hospitals for Patient Experience is unique in that it evaluates specific Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey results along with primary research about women’s healthcare preferences.

The Women’s Choice Award collects the data for the following HCAHPS survey measures and uses a weighted average to award the best hospitals for patient experience:

• Effective communication with nurses and doctors • Responsiveness to requests for help • Pain management • Explanation about medications before being administered • Bathroom and room cleanliness • Patient recommendation rating

The Christ Hospital has a rich history of empowering women to make better healthcare choices. We are the only healthcare facility in the region with a dedicated women's surgery center. And our Family Birthing Center, located at The Christ Hospital Medical Center – Liberty Township, offers a boutique-like experience for expecting mothers and their families, with large patient rooms, which include a kitchenette and a family area, allowing for single-room maternity care. As the sponsor of the American Heart Association's "Go Red for Women Experience," we inspire and educate women about their cardiac health. Plus we created "Hey Ladies, Let's Talk About Women's Health," a health hub of lifestyle resources and educational events to meet the needs of women from all backgrounds and every life stage.

"One of the healthiest decisions a woman can make is to trust The Christ Hospital with all their women's health needs," said Dr. Leeanne Olshavsky, associate director of women's health services at The Christ Hospital.
