2 | Health Matters: Providence Holy Cross Medical Center Letter to the Community I am honored to share some exciting news with you. For the fifth straight year, Healthgrades has once again named Providence Holy Cross Medical Center one of America's 50 Best Hospitals. This award places us among the top 1% of hospitals nationwide for overall clinical performance across the most common conditions and procedures. I am grateful to our dedicated and talented team of physicians and caregivers who have made this achievement possible. The high-quality care we provide is defined by our Mission to serve all, especially those who are poor and vulnerable. Whether you are a patient, a current or former caregiver or simply our neighbor, we consider it an honor to provide you and your family with world-class care, close to home. In this issue of Health Matters, you'll learn about a new state-of-the-art robot that plays a crucial role in the early diagnosis of lung cancer, our award-winning stroke care and our newly opened neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) that is making a difference for new families. You will also read about our trauma center, which is celebrating 40 years of providing lifesaving care to our community. As always, thank you for your support of our hospital over the years. We are honored to continue to serve you with compassion, excellence and innovation. I look forward to sharing more about our growing services and programs in the months ahead.
