Quality & Safety

Critical Acclaim for Our Safety MeasuresIndustry Leading Risk Adjusted Mortality

Quantros, a leading provider of software solutions that advance health care quality and safety, ranked Jupiter Medical Center one of the top performing hospitals in the country in a crucial category: risk-adjusted mortality. This is a ratio of the observed number of in-hospital deaths to the number expected, based on the hospital's case mix. Jupiter Medical Center performed better than 99.4 percent of hospitals in Florida and, in a coast-to-coast comparison, outperformed 99.9 percent of the hospitals across the U.S.

High Praise from Patients

The Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) is a national survey that asks patients about their experiences during a recent hospital stay. Our overall patient satisfaction ranks the highest in Palm Beach and Martin Counties, while our “likelihood to recommend” rating remains significantly higher than the state and national averages.

Patient Safety is Our Number One Priority

Jupiter Medical Center is committed to the health and well-being of our patients, working together to ensure that you are safe while in our care.
