What patients say
Patients praise
- Recognition as a Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) by the National Center for Quality Achievement
- Staff friendliness and good nurse-to-patient ratios reported by some healthcare employees in the broader regional hospital setting
Common complaints
- Concerns regarding the 24-hour provider care line/triage service, specifically regarding patient access to urgent care after hours and perceived limitations compared to having on-site emergency personnel
- Reports of frustration from residents in smaller villages regarding the reliance on remote triage services instead of local 24-hour clinic staffing
In patients' words
"People shouldn’t have to call out to outside the village seeking help... They need one or two people that can take care of true emergencies."
— Local resident at NSHC board meeting via The Nome Nugget"Friendly staff, good nurse to patient ratio"
