Adventist Health Castle was recognized by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services with a five-star rating, a recognition only 10% of hospitals nationwide—and just two others in the state—have achieved.

The CMS Overall Star Rating assigns one to five stars based on a hospital’s performance across five quality areas: mortality, safety of care, readmission, patient experience and timeliness and effectiveness of care. The overall rating a hospital receives shows how well it performs on an identified set of quality measures compared to other hospitals in the nation.

The GEDA accreditation acknowledges that at Adventist Health Castle, we provide standardized approaches to care that address common geriatric issues, ensure optimal transitions of care from the emergency department to other settings and work to achieve geriatric-focused quality improvements.
