Fairview Ridges Ranked One Of 'Best Hospitals' In America

BURNSVILLE, MN—A hospital in Burnsville was ranked among the best in America by Newsweek.

Fairview Ridges Hospital was ranked #192 for the best hospitals in America. 334 hospitals made the total list.

Other hospitals from Minnesota that were included were:

• Mayo Clinic in Rochester ranked #1.
• CentraCare in St. Cloud ranked #45.
• The University of Minnesota Medical Center ranked #67.

The magazine’s “World’s Best Hospitals” list for 2021 ranked the top hospitals around the world, including in the United States. It’s the third year Newsweek has published the list, for which it partnered with the data firm Statista.

In its methodology, Newsweek explained that it looked at three data sources to compile the rankings: recommendations from medical experts, results from patient surveys and medical KPIs on hospitals.

Hospitals in the U.S. were also recognized for infection prevention if they performed above the national average based on data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

“We are incredibly proud of the teams who deliver compassionate, high-quality care at all of our hospitals every day,” M Health Fairview spokesperson Aimee Jordan said. “This national recognition is a testament to our mission to provide best-in-class care to our community with a team of leading-edge experts and compassionate caregivers.”
