Jordan Hospital receives national recognition for stroke care - Kingston, MA

What a pile of crap. If you can't provide real information like 30-day deaths and 100% recovery statistics, you just buffalo them with bullshit meaningless statistics. You could meet all these processes and still have a 100% death rate and be praised for that. Totally wrong thing to measure.
Big Whoopee.
