Valley View Hospital Achieves Five-Star Rating for Second Consecutive Year

Valley View, an independent, not-for-profit health system located in Glenwood Springs, has once again been honored with a Five-Star Rating for Overall Hospital Quality by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). This prestigious recognition is awarded based on a hospital's performance across 45 quality measures, including safety of care, mortality, patient experience, readmission rates, and timely and effective care. Valley View stands out as one of only 12 hospitals in Colorado and 290 nationwide to achieve this top rating, underscoring the exceptional care provided by its team.

The achievement marks the second consecutive year Valley View has received this distinction, a testament to the unwavering dedication of its physicians, nurses, administrators, and support staff. CMS evaluates nearly 3,000 hospitals across the country, making this recognition a significant milestone for Valley View. Dr. Brian Murphy, CEO of Valley View, expressed pride in the team's commitment to excellence and the positive impact it has on patient care.

Valley View's patient-centric approach, guided by values of safety, quality, and community service, has been instrumental in its success.
