In January, team members throughout Beaufort Memorial hospital celebrated the hospital being recognized as one of America’s Top Hospitals for patient safety and quality of care. The celebration included the unveiling of the Top Hospital plaque in the hospital lobby and distribution of cookies to staff and providers. Beaufort Memorial is among only 5% of U.S. hospitals to earn the Top Hospital designation from The Leapfrog Group, a national hospital safety watchdog organization. “This type of recognition can only be achieved with a hospital-wide commitment to safety, involving everyone from our housekeeping and food service staffs to the nurses, doctors, and technicians on our medical team,” BMH President and CEO Russell Baxley said. “Their hard work and vigilance to keep patients, visitors and each other safe is central to the values we hold as an organization. I am proud to work alongside this amazing team.” Photo courtesy of Beaufort Memorial Hospital.
