Penn Medicine Princeton Medical Center (PMC) was rated high performing in five types of care in the 2021-2022 Best Hospitals rankings published July 27 by U.S. News & World Report.
PMC was rated high performing in one adult specialty – orthopaedics – and four additional areas: treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), heart failure, and kidney failure, and performing knee replacement procedures.
This marks the seventh year in a row that PMC has earned high performing ratings in three or more types of care in the hospital rankings, which are published annually by U.S. News & World Report.
The ratings are based largely on data related to clinical outcomes and patient safety, as well as patient satisfaction surveys and indicators such as whether a hospital holds Magnet® status, the highest institutional recognition available for nursing excellence. PMC is one of approximately 560 hospitals worldwide to hold Magnet status.
