Northside hospitals recognized as Top Performers by The Joint Commission

Northside Hospital-Atlanta, Northside Hospital-Cherokee and Northside Hospital-Forsyth each have been named Top Performer on Key Quality Measures by The Joint Commission (TJC), the leading accreditor of health care organizations in America.

The three hospitals were recognized by TJC for exemplary performance in using evidence-based clinical processes that are shown to improve care for heart failure, pneumonia and surgical care.

"Our employees and physicians are committed to offering the safest quality care and positive patient outcomes," said Bob Quattrocchi, president and CEO, Northside Hospital, Inc. "On the heels of other recognitions for quality that Northside has recently achieved, this distinction from The Joint Commission is further proof of their hard work."
