AdventHealth Daytona Beach has been named by U.S. News & World Report to its list of 2024-2025 Best Hospitals in the nation.
AdventHealth Daytona Beach ranks No. 1 in the Deltona-Daytona Beach metro area for the fourth consecutive year and is tied for 17th in Florida.
The hospital was rated “high performing” in eight common adult procedures and conditions:
- COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)
- Colon cancer surgery
- Heart attack
- Heart bypass surgery
- Heart failure
- Kidney failure
- Pneumonia
- Stroke
“AdventHealth Daytona Beach is consistently recognized for leading the way in providing high-quality, compassionate care to the patients and communities we serve,” said David Weis, AdventHealth Daytona Beach CEO. “This year, we are incredibly proud to again be named the top hospital in the area and one of the top 17 hospitals in the state. I am proud of our team members who work tirelessly each day to elevate the standard of care. Their commitment and dedication have earned our recognition as a Best Hospital.”
Additionally, AdventHealth Orlando was ranked No. 1 in Metro Orlando for the 14th consecutive year and #4 in Florida. The hospital was also ranked among the top 50 in the nation in four clinical specialties: diabetes; neurology and neurosurgery; obstetrics and gynecology; and ear, nose, and throat.
U.S. News evaluated nearly 5,000 hospitals across 15 specialties and 20 procedures and conditions; only 11% of evaluated hospitals earned a Best Hospitals ranking. Hospitals awarded a “Best” designation excelled at factors such as clinical outcomes, level of nursing care, and patient experience.
“For more than three decades, U.S. News has been a leading resource for patients navigating their health care decisions,” said Ben Harder, chief of health analysis and managing editor at U.S. News. “A 'Best Hospital' recognition empowers patients to seek out medical care from the best of the best to treat their illness or condition.”
To calculate the Best Hospitals rankings, U.S. News evaluated each hospital’s performance on objective measures such as risk-adjusted mortality rates, preventable complications, and level of nursing care.
The Best Hospitals Specialty rankings methodology and Procedures & Conditions ratings methodology measure patient outcomes using data from millions of records provided by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
This year, among other methodology refinements, U.S. News incorporated new data on care provided to patients with Medicare Advantage insurance and on care provided to outpatients, nearly doubling the number of patients included in its annual data analysis. The Procedures & Conditions ratings are based entirely on objective quality measures.
