I am proud to share that Kossuth Regional Health Center has been named one of the 100 Best Hospitals for Patient Experience (under 25 beds) by the 2025 Women’s Choice Award®. This national recognition is a testament to the dedication, compassion, and excellence our team brings to every patient interaction.
In a time when healthcare continues to face unprecedented challenges, our staff has remained steadfast in their commitment to delivering high-quality, patient-centered care. This award is especially meaningful because it reflects the voices of women—the primary healthcare decision-makers in most families—and their trust in our ability to provide exceptional care.
The Women’s Choice Award is based on rigorous criteria that include patient satisfaction, clinical excellence, and hospital reputation. Research shows that 9 out of 10 women trust a hospital more when it has earned this award, and 86% would travel up to 50 miles to receive care from a recognized facility. Being ranked among the top 100 hospitals nationwide is not only an honor—it’s a reflection of the deep connection we have with our community and the high standards we uphold every day.
This recognition also affirms our mission to serve as your home for healthcare, treating every patient and employee with respect, compassion, and integrity. I want to thank each member of our staff for their tireless efforts and unwavering dedication. My team is the reason we’ve achieved this milestone for the third year in a row.
As we celebrate this achievement, we remain focused on continuous improvement and innovation in patient care. We are honored to be recognized and inspired to keep raising the bar for healthcare excellence in our region.
Thank you to our community for your trust and support. We look forward to continuing to serve you with the same level of care and commitment that earned us this award. We are proud to serve as your home for healthcare.
– Dar Elbert, KRHC CEO
