The St. Rose Dominican Hospitals – Siena and Rose de Lima Campuses have just been recognized as top performing hospitals in the MIDAS+ Platinum Quality Award program.

“My admiration of and appreciation for the quality care provided by all of our St. Rose employees continues to be substantiated by the performance awards we receive,” said Rod Davis, president/CEO of St. Rose Dominican Hospitals. “Most importantly, this confirms that our patients are receiving the very best care available.”
The scoring methodology for this award is based upon comparative performance of over 564 hospitals that participate in either the MIDAS+ CPMS or DataVision solutions. Each area is weighted by a point system and the total score is based upon total awarded points divided by total eligible points.
ACS MIDAS+ selected the Siena Campus and Rose de Lima Campus in the top 5% of MIDAS+ hospital performers in the following award categories:
- Hospitals with an average daily census less than 100 patients – Rose de Lima Campus
