One can hope care is improving but would like to see something more concrete

Can’t get any worse, only one direction things could go.

About five months ago I had Hernia Surgery at The Villages Hospital and everything went well.

Surgeon?

These Villages Hospital threads are about as uplifting as the waiting room at Sloan Kettering! But please continue....

Two thoughts..

1. This was a PR appearance by a person whose job is to make the hospital better. She is reporting on data that has not been made public and we shall see if her predictions of grades are accurate. It is interesting she is using ABC grades which is not the system CMS uses for evaluating hospitals, it uses stars.
Leapfrog uses ABC and is only interested in patient safety, preventable errors which is a different set of outcomes than used by CMS. Both can be useful.

2. There are many here who repetitively bash the POA as being anti-developer and anti-Villages. But it is the POA that is bringing this hopefully positive information to public attention.

If this review is at all favorable we will see lots of info in the Sun. Otherwise not a word.
