“These recognitions are a direct reflection of the hard work, dedication, and commitment our team brings to our organization every day,” said Trevor Wright, CEO of Loma Linda University Health Hospitals. “Our employees bring our mission to life every day through their dedication to providing world-class healthcare and exceptional patient care.”

In addition to these accolades, LLUMC has also been rated as “high performing” in 11 standard adult procedures and conditions: COPD, Colon Cancer Surgery, Gynecological Cancer Surgery, Heart Attack, Heart Failure, Hip Fracture, Kidney Failure, Leukemia, Lymphoma & Myeloma, Pneumonia, Prostate Cancer Surgery, and Stroke.
