Elkhart General Recognized for Patient Safety

In February, the Indiana Hospital Association (IHA) announced that Elkhart General Hospital was among just 12 member hospitals named to the Women’s Choice Award America’s Best Hospitals for Patient Safety list.

According to the IHA, the evidence-based designation includes hospitals that have “exceptional performance in limiting a wide range of hospital-associated infections and complications from surgery and medical treatment.”

“The fantastic teamwork on and across units has resulted in improved patient outcomes!” says Karra Heggen, MSN, BSN, RN, Vice President of Nursing at Elkhart General Hospital. “Thank you to all our EGH associates for keeping the patients in the center of everything you do to provide a safe patient environment while delivering exceptional care!”
