Newsweek recognizes two HCA Virginia hospitals for maternity care

Richmond, VA  — Two HCA Virginia hospitals — Henrico Doctors’ Hospital and StoneSprings Hospital Center — have been awarded on Newsweek’s list of America’s Best Maternity Hospitals 2024.

High-quality maternity care, provided from pregnancy through birth and postpartum, is key to the long-term health of newborns and women who give birth. Given that maternity care is a major component of healthcare, Newsweek and Statista, the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider, have partnered for the third time to identify America’s Best Maternity Hospitals in 2024.

“This national recognition is a testament to our dedicated physicians, nurses, and clinical teams who are committed to the care and improvement of human life,” said Elizabeth Mikula, vice president of quality for HCA Healthcare Capital Division. “Families are faced with many options when choosing a hospital to bring life into the world, and I’m proud that Henrico Doctors’ Hospital in Richmond and StoneSprings Hospital in Loudoun County are known for providing the highest-quality care to our patients.”

The ranking is based on three pillars:

1. Nationwide Online Survey: Healthcare professionals and hospital managers with knowledge about maternity processes e.g., neonatal and perinatal doctors, nurses, and midwives, were asked to recommend leading maternity hospitals in the United States.
2. Patient Experience Survey: Survey of the overall patient experience in the hospital.
3. Hospital Quality Metrics: Indicators relevant to maternity care were considered.
