Ortonville Area Health Services (OAHS) was recently recognized with a 2025 Performance Leadership Award in the category of Patient Perspective. Presented annually on National Rural Health Day, The Performance Leadership Awards are compiled by The Chartis Center for Rural Health and recognize rural hospitals whose performance ranks in the top 25% nationally in areas such as Quality, Outcomes, and Patient Perspective.
The Patient Perspective award highlights hospitals that deliver care experiences highly valued by patients and their families, including responsiveness, communication, compassion, and overall satisfaction.
“Our team takes great pride in putting patients and families at the center of everything we do,” said Dr. Al Ross, CEO of Ortonville Area Health Services. “Receiving the Patient Perspective Performance Leadership Award is a reflection of our team’s commitment to providing compassionate, patient-centered care throughout our region.”
The Performance Leadership Awards are based on the Chartis Rural Hospital Performance INDEX®, which measures how well rural hospitals are performing in areas like patient care, efficiency, and overall hospital operations. These results help hospitals see what’s working well and where they can improve, so they can provide the best possible care to their communities.
