West Boca Medical Center recently received the 2009-10 Maternity Care Excellence Award from HealthGrades, an independent healthcare ratings organization. The hospital was ranked in the top 5 percent nationally for maternity care, and it is the fourth consecutive year they received such a distinction.

“I am proud to say that this is West Boca Medical Center’s fourth consecutive year to receive this award. We could not have done this without the dedication and talents of our nurses and medical staff,” said West Boca Medical Center CEO Mitch Feldman.

The study is based on 13 million hospital delivery records from 1,500 hospitals in 19 states between 2005-07. To view the full study, visit www.healthgrades.com.
