Magnet Designation
Hoag is a Magnet® designated facility.
The Magnet Recognition Program was developed by the American Nurses Credentialing
Center (ANCC) to recognize health care organizations that provide nursing
excellence, and is regarded as one of the top nursing designations in
the country.
Recognizing quality patient care, nursing excellence, and innovations in
professional nursing practice, the Magnet Recognition Program provides
consumers with the ultimate benchmark to measure the quality of care that
they can expect to receive.
Applicants undergo an extensive evaluation, and members who are awarded
Magnet status must continue to maintain rigorous standards as part of
their four-year designation. To reapply for and receive Magnet status
for an additional four years is confirmation of the hospitals resolve
to deliver the highest level of care in nursing today.
Hoag’s Magnet designation validates the outstanding nursing staff
and care provided to our patients and community. This designation highlights
Hoag as one of the best hospitals in the country, boasting an exceptional
team of staff and physicians.
