The Desimone Levee on the Green River failed and is under repair. The hospital is above the flood zone and currently in no danger of flooding. We evacuated our Time Square and Kent Station Clinics and our Lind Avenue locations. Several locations are experiencing staffing issues due to severe traffic impacts. Impacted patients are being contacted to reschedule appointments. Please be safe, do not drive or walk through standing water, and call 9-1-1 if you need emergency evacuation assistance.

CMS created the Hospital Quality Rating Program to help consumers, their families and caregivers compare hospital care more easily. We are proud to have earned a 5-star rating, the highest possible! This places Valley among the top 9 percent of hospitals nationwide.
Theresa Braungardt, Senior Vice President Patient Care Services/Chief Nursing Officer says "The CMS Star rating is just one way we measure our overall improvement in many areas of quality--from mortality, patient experience, readmissions, safety, effectiveness, and timeliness of care, we use this information to assist us in benchmarking across comparable hospitals and systems. I am very proud of the quality care our clinical teams and support services provide every day, and this rating is just one way we can measure our success as we continue our journey to zero harm."
THANK YOU Valley caregivers for living our mission of caring for our community like family!
