Congratulations to McLeod Health!


(July 15, 2005)

We were delighted to learn that McLeod Health, a Corporate DevelopMint client, has the honor of being featured in a wonderful series of articles in the July 18, 2005 “America’s Best Hospitals” issue of US News & World Report. The article examines in detail the life-saving practices McLeod is instituting throughout its entire system. McLeod was helping lead the way in adopting the safety and quality improvement procedures advanced by the prestigious Institute for Healthcare Improvement (Cambridge, Mass.). McLeod deserves the highest praise for their long-standing commitment to minimizing risk for every patient.

As Michael Rose, MD, Chief of McLeod’s medical staff notes: “ …I trained and worked at such prominent institutions as Massachusetts General and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, but I’ve stayed at McLeod for the past 15 years because I’ve never experienced this level of attention and commitment to quality care.”

Corporate DevelopMint is currently assisting the McLeod Health Foundation in enhancing its planned giving efforts.
