Baylor Regional Medical Center at Grapevine has received Magnet designation for excellence in nursing services by the American Nurses Credentialing Center's (ANCC) Magnet Recognition Program®. Baylor Grapevine joins the ranks of some of the nation’s prestigious health care organizations including Cleveland Clinic, Johns Hopkins Hospital, Mayo Clinic and MD Anderson Cancer Center. It is also the fourth hospital in Baylor Health Care System to receive the elite designation.
Magnet status is one of the highest levels of recognition a hospital can achieve. For patients, this designation means that their care is provided by a nursing staff that ranks in the top seven percent of hospitals in the country. According to the ANCC, Magnet designation is the gold standard of patient care.
“Magnet recognition is a testament to the top-notch patient and family-centered care that our bedside leaders, staff and medical staff provide to the community,” said Beth Houser, chief nursing officer at Baylor Regional Medical Center at Grapevine. “It is also a reflection of our unwavering spirit of culture, teamwork and nursing excellence that truly make this facility a great place to work.”
Magnet recognition has been shown to provide specific benefits to hospitals and their communities, such as
- Higher patient satisfaction with nurse communication, availability of help, and receipt of discharge information;
- Lower risk of 30-day mortality and lower failure to rescue;
- Higher job satisfaction among nurses; and
- Lower nurse reports of intentions to leave position.
