How does your hospital compare to others in the region?

Have you ever wondered how your hospital measures up with other hospitals in the region in the areas of patient satisfaction, patient safety and clinical care? California HealthCare Foundation, University of California at San Francisco Institute for Public Health Policy Studies and California Hospitals Assessment and Reporting Task Force have collaborated on a website that allows users to compare hospitals. There also is a “resource and tools” section which allows users to objectively select a hospital and then review checklists for hospital stays.
