San Bernardino County’s Arrowhead Regional Medical Center (ARMC) was named as a Best Hospital 2024 – 2025 by U.S. News & World Report, with honors as a High Performing Hospital.
This distinction recognizes excellence in one or more types of medical care. Of the more than 4,500 hospitals that U.S. News evaluated, only 38% earned even a single High Performing rating.
ARMC was recognized for its treatment of kidney failure. A hospital’s kidney failure score is based on multiple data categories, including patient survival, volume, nurse staffing and discharge time.
“We are incredibly honored to be recognized as a Best Hospital for 2024 – 2025 by U.S. News & World Report,” said ARMC CEO, Andrew Goldfrach, FACHE. “Being acknowledged for our excellence in treating kidney failure and maternal health underscores our mission to serve with compassion and excellence. We will continue to strive for the highest standards in all aspects of patient care.”
Over 6,000 hospitals were evaluated, and eligible hospitals received one of three ratings – high performing (624 hospitals), average (2,217 hospitals) or below average (640 hospitals) with the balance either not offering the service or performing too few of the procedures to be rated. Hospitals that earned a high performing rating were significantly better than the national average.
In April, ARMC was recognized for its success in supporting Black Maternal Health by the U.S. News & World Report. ARMC is one of 26 hospitals nationwide that achieved top outcomes for cesarean section and unexpected newborn complications among Black patients. In December, ARMC was also named as a 2024 Best Hospital for Maternity Care by U.S. News & World Report. Hospitals that receive a High Performing designation as part of Best Hospitals for Maternity Care meet a high standard in caring for parents with uncomplicated pregnancies, among other measures.
