Moore Regional Hospital ranked among top N.C. Hospitals by U.S. News & World Report

PINEHURST — FirstHealth Moore Regional Hospital, including its Hoke and Richmond campuses, has again been recognized as one of the top hospitals in North Carolina by U.S. News & World Report.

Moore Regional is tied for sixth in the annual Best Hospitals recognition and also received high-performing marks in several procedures and conditions.

The annual Best Hospitals rankings and ratings, now in its 35th year, are designed to assist patients and their doctors in making informed decisions about where to receive care for challenging health conditions or for common elective procedures.

“It is an honor to be ranked among the best hospitals in the state,” FirstHealth CEO Mickey Foster said. “Our employees, providers and volunteers work tirelessly to provide exceptional care to our patients, and this achievement is a testament to that. We are honored by everyone who trusts us with their care.”

U.S. News evaluated nearly 5,000 hospitals across 15 specialties and 20 procedures and conditions; only 11% of evaluated hospitals earned a Best Hospitals ranking. Hospitals awarded a “Best” designation excelled at factors such as clinical outcomes, level of nursing care and patient experience.

Moore Regional Hospital received high performing ratings for back surgery; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; colon cancer surgery; diabetes; heart attack; heart failure; hip and knee replacement; kidney failure; pneumonia and prostate cancer surgery. As departments of the hospital, both Moore Regional’s Richmond and Hoke campuses are also included in the ranking.
