Last year, Enloe was recognized for seven procedures and conditions. U.S. News evaluated more than 4,500 hospitals across 15 specialties and 21 procedures and conditions. Hospitals awarded a “Best” designation excelled at factors such as clinical outcomes, level of nursing care and patient experience.
“Enloe Medical Center has become a symbol for quality and compassionate care in the North State,” said Enloe’s President and CEO Mike Wiltermood. “This recognition validates all the hard work our caregivers perform daily. At a time when health care organizations in our region are struggling to stay afloat, it’s truly inspiring what our staff has been able to achieve.”
