Staff at Cape Fear Valley Hoke Hospital celebrated the news that they’d been given a five star review by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services with fun costumes and Bundt cakes. 

CMS recently published the 2022 ratings of hospitals across the United States. Cape Fear Valley Hoke Hospital was one of 429 hospitals across the country to receive a five star rating and one of only 12 North Carolina hospitals to receive a five star rating. 

Ratings are determined by an evaluation of five categories. According to the CMS website the categories measured and the weight assigned to them when establishing the rankings are as follows:

  • Mortality, 22 percent weight
  • Safety, 22 percent weight
  • Readmission, 22 percent weight
  • Patient experience, 22 percent weight
  • Timely & effective care, 12 percent weight

This is CFV Hoke Hospital’s third consecutive year of receiving a full five stars.
