SEYMOUR, Ind. – For the fourth straight year, Schneck Medical Center has earned the prestigious Magnet designation for nursing excellence from the American Nurses Credentialing Center, which recognizes health organizations that provide the highest quality of care.
Fewer than 8.5% of U.S. hospitals earn Magnet recognition, and less than 1% have received it four consecutive times.
“Our nurses are vital team members who are committed to providing extraordinary care,” says Eric Fish, MD, President/CEO of Schneck. “The Magnet recognition has raised the bar for patient care and helps inspire every member of our team to achieve excellence every day.”
Magnet appraisers spoke to nurses, physicians, advanced practice providers, and team members, as well as members of the community during a three-day review in January.
