These scores are based on responses from a sample of people admitted to Memorial University Medical Center for any length of time between October and December 2009. Patients are asked to rate the categories below using a scale of "very poor" to "very good." Each response receives a point value and we determine a mean score based on those points:
Very Poor = 0
Poor= 25
Fair = 50
Good = 75
Very Good = 100
The "peer group" represents the mean score of 248 similar hospitals.
A higher score is better. Click on each category below to see more information.
