LOGAN — Intermountain Logan Regional Hospital is included in the 2022 U.S. News & World Report list of the Best Hospitals for Maternity Care.
Fewer than 300 hospitals across the nation scored high enough to make the list.
Brandon McBride, administrator at Logan Regional, credited the work of physicians, midwives, nurses and technicians in the hospital’s Women’s Center, who provide the best maternity care possible.
Intermountain’s maternity caregivers also help educate new moms about how to care for themselves and their baby after childbirth and help connect them with community resources for women and children.
For the list, the magazine analyzes labor and delivery services data to make their determinations. Hospitals were also rated on whether they met new federal criteria for “birthing-friendly” practices. The magazine also rewarded hospitals for tracking and reporting their outcomes for patients of different races and ethnicities.
The magazine’s Senior Health Data Scientist, Min Hee Deo, said the list is designed to help parents identify hospitals that excel in delivering babies for uncomplicated pregnancies.
