As part of the 2021 National Rural Health Day celebration, Wray Community District Hospital announced it has been recognized by The Chartis Center of Rural Health and the National Organization of State Offices of Rural Health (NOSORH) with a Performance Leadership Award in Quality and Patient Perspective.

The Performance Leadership Awards utilize the results of the Hospital Strength INDEX®, the industry’s most comprehensive and objective assessment of rural hospital performance. INDEX data is trusted by rural hospitals, health systems with rural footprints, hospital associations and state offices of rural health across the country to measure and monitor performance across a variety of areas impacting hospital operations and finance.

“For the fourth straight year, Wray Community District Hospital and Clinic has been nationally recognized for its Performance Leadership in Quality and Patient Perspective,” said CEO of Wray Hospital John Hart.  “I would especially like to recognize our Primary Care Physicians who have dedicated their careers to provide the quality of care that we receive every day, all year long. As a rural teaching hospital our doctors lead the way in mentoring and educating primary care residents and clinical staff!”

“We are proud to mark this year’s National Rural Health Day by recognizing rural hospitals’ steadfast commitment to serving their communities and delivering high quality care,” said Michael Topchik, National Leader, The Chartis Center for Rural Health. “In the face of tremendous challenges, these top quartile performers continue to exemplify the power of rural and create a blueprint for excellence in quality, outcomes and patient perspectives.”
