SSM Health Waupun Memorial Hospital is included on Becker’s Hospital Review’s ‘Top Recommended Hospitals’ list. Inclusion on the list is based on patients’ likelihood to recommend the hospitals to others. Only 11% of US hospitals made the list.

To create the list, Becker’s Hospital Review uses data from the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS), which reflects patient experiences gathered between July 2023 and June 2024. Hospitals were evaluated based on patients’ willingness to recommend them to friends and family, requiring at least 100 completed surveys within a four-quarter period for eligibility.

DeAnn Thurmer, SSM Health Waupun Memorial Hospital president, expressed gratitude for the recognition.

“Being recognized by Becker’s as a top recommended hospital is a meaningful honor that reflects the dedication, compassion, and expertise of our teams,” Thurmer says. “This recognition belongs to every member of our staff who goes above and beyond each day to provide a welcoming healing environment. It reflects the trust our patients place in us and our staff’s unwavering commitment to our mission to deliver exceptional, compassionate care.”

This acknowledgment highlights the exceptional service and commitment to health care excellence demonstrated by both hospitals, reinforcing their role as trusted health care providers in their communities.
