Hospitals Provide a Pulse in Struggling Rural Towns Dionne Searcey – 4/29/15

“We tried to design the facility for where we thought the

future was going,” Mr. Sommers, the chief executive,

said. The hospital’s biggest challenge has been

improving its reputation; six years ago it came

in dead last in a ranking of patient satisfaction

at Nebraska hospitals. Residents bypassed it for

bigger hospitals in Lincoln, the state capital, which is 40

miles away and home to the University of Nebraska.”

“The Beatrice hospital now ranks above the

national average in every category on

Medicare’s website for comparing hospitals.”
