LITTLE ROCK (May 23, 2016) — CHI St. Vincent was recently named to the 2016 edition of "100 Great Hospitals in America," a list compiled annually by Becker’s Hospital Review.

The hospitals on this list are well-known for a multitude of reasons, such as having a strong history of medical innovation, providing top-notch care to patients, leading clinical advancement with forward-thinking research or holding an irreplaceable spot in their communities.

“It is an honor to be included on this prestigious list of hospitals and health systems,” said Chad Aduddel, CEO of CHI St. Vincent. “I attribute this honor to the great work of our medical professionals, who are dedicated to improving quality and ensuring the best clinical outcomes and experiences for our patients.”

The Becker's Hospital Review editorial team selected hospitals for this list based on rankings and awards from reputable sources, including U.S. News & World Report, Truven Health Analytics, Healthgrades, the American Nurses Credentialing Center and The Leapfrog Group, among other resources. The final result is a list of 100 hospitals considered overall healthcare leaders in their region, state or the nation.
