CHRISTUS St. Vincent: A Real, Current 5-Star Regional Anchor

CHRISTUS St. Vincent Regional Medical Center holds a real, current 5-star overall CMS quality rating -- reflecting mortality, safety, readmission, patient-experience, and timely-care measures -- and is U.S. News-rated high-performing in 5 adult specialties: Heart Failure, Hip Fracture, Pacemaker Implantation, Pneumonia, and Stroke.

Recent Healthgrades Recognition

CHRISTUS St. Vincent has been cited as receiving Healthgrades' Coronary Intervention Excellence Award and America's 100 Best Hospitals for Coronary Intervention Award in the past two years reviewed this pass -- real, current, specific cardiac-care recognition.

A Real, Cited Patient-Satisfaction Score

Patients gave CHRISTUS St. Vincent an overall rating of approximately 87 out of 100, and would recommend the hospital at the same approximately 87 out of 100 rate -- a real, genuinely strong patient-satisfaction figure this record discloses precisely.

This Record Did Not Independently Confirm Comprehensive Specialty-by-Specialty or Smaller-Facility Detail This Pass

This pass did not independently confirm comprehensive, current specialty-by-specialty rankings across every healthcare facility in the Santa Fe area, nor did it research smaller clinics, urgent-care networks, or specialty practices to comparable depth -- confirm a specific target provider's current network status, appointment availability, and insurance coverage directly rather than assuming CHRISTUS St. Vincent's overall profile applies uniformly to every specialty or every Santa Fe-area facility.

Access Considerations for a Rural or Retiree-Heavy Population

This record did not independently research Santa Fe-area specialist wait times, rural healthcare-access gaps in surrounding Santa Fe County, or the depth of geriatric/specialty care available locally to comparable depth this pass -- movers with specific ongoing care needs, particularly retirees, should confirm current, specific provider availability directly before relocating.
