SUPERIOR, NE – Brodstone Healthcare has been named a top hospital for nurse communication by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). This recognition places Brodstone among an elite group of hospitals nationwide that received a five-star rating for nurse communication, a reflection of the organization's commitment to patient-centered care.

The recognition is based on data from the CMS Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey. The five-star rating for nurse communication is directly tied to patient responses to questions about how well their nurses explained things clearly, listened carefully to them, and treated them with courtesy and respect.

"We are incredibly honored to receive this five-star rating from CMS, which is a testament to the compassionate and dedicated work of our entire nursing team," said Treg Vyzourek, CEO of Brodstone Healthcare. "Our nurses are the heart of our hospital, and this recognition validates their efforts to ensure every patient feels heard, respected, and cared for. This achievement is a direct result of our nurses' commitment to excellence and the valuable feedback from our community."
