Within Atrium Health, we use survey results to better understand what is important to our patients and how we can improve healthcare experiences. The overall Patient Rating score comes from the questions on our Medallia Patient Experience Survey. Responses are measured on a scale, where 0 represents "very poor" and 10 represents "very good.” Those scores are shown as 1 to 5 stars on the provider’s profile.

- October 1, 2022 I have answered these questions as my daddy's voice. He was unresponsive when he was transported from Accordius. They got him alert enough that we could talk with him a little. He was in very serious condition. I know even though he could not tell us, he knew was being loving cared for by all of the staff and doctors. He is in hospice at this time. Your hospice care led us all the way as we had never experienced this in our family before. Wonderful group of caregivers.
