Findlay hospital makes 'world's best' list

FINDLAY — Blanchard Valley Hospital has been recognized on Newsweek's list of World's Best Hospitals 2024 as a Five-Year Champion. Newsweek and Statista Inc., a statistics portal and industry ranking provider, recently announced the award. The World's Best Hospitals 2024 ranking lists the best hospitals in 30 countries, selected based on multiple comparability factors, such as standard of living/life expectancy, population size, number of hospitals, and data availability. The lists are based on four data sources: recommendations from medical experts; results from patient surveys; hospital quality metrics; and PROMs implementation survey. Based on the above four pillars and their respective weights, a final source was calculated for each hospital. "We are honored to again receive this national recognition," said Myron Lewis, president and chief executive officer of Blanchard Valley Health System. "Every day, our associates work hard to ensure that patients receive safe, quality care while in the hospital. It is rewarding to see these efforts recognized on the national level."
