Newsweek names University Hospital one of America’s Best Maternity Hospitals
University Hospital has been named to Newsweek’s list of America’s Best Maternity Hospitals 2024. The award list was announced on May 8, 2024, and can be viewed on Newsweek.com.
High-quality maternity care, provided from pregnancy through birth and postpartum is key to the long-term health of newborns and women who give birth. Given that maternity care is a major component of health care, Newsweek and Statista, a leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider, have partnered for the third time to identify America’s Best Maternity Hospitals in 2024.
The ranking is based on three pillars:
- Nationwide Online Survey: Health care professionals and hospital managers with knowledge about maternity processes, such as neonatal and perinatal doctors, nurses, and midwives, were asked to recommend leading maternity hospitals in the U.S.
- Patient Experience Survey: Survey of the overall patient experience in the hospital.
- Hospital Quality Metrics: Indicators relevant to maternity care were considered.
Based on the results of the study, University Hospital is proud to be recognized on Newsweek’s list of America’s Best Maternity Hospitals 2024.
