 The Top 100 awards program celebrates outstanding performance annually among the nation’s rural hospitals based on the results of the Chartis Rural Hospital Performance INDEX^®.

“We’re honored to rank among the top rural and community hospitals,” said Chief Executive Officer Doug Faus. ​“Recognition like this reflects the high-quality care our hospital team members provide to our community day after day. I am proud to work with such a dedicated group of people who sincerely care about doing great work.”

“The delivery of care within rural communities is perhaps more complex today than at any point in recent memory. This year’s Top 100 Rural & Community Hospitals have emerged as true leaders – committed to their mission through a powerful combination of resilience, dedication and innovation,” said Michael Topchik, Executive Director of The Chartis Center for Rural Health. ​“We’re delighted to recognize this year’s winners and celebrate their Top 100 status.”
