Introduction For families faced with a serious or complex medical problem, the choice of hospital can be critical. Until 1990, patients and healthcare providers had few tools or resources beyond their doctor’s recommendation to help focus their decision. That changed in 1990, when U.S. News & World Report initiated annual assessments of U.S. hospitals in the form of lists collectively titled “America’s Best Hospitals.” Each summer, U.S. News identifies and ranks hospitals of exceptional quality, this year drawing from a universe of 5,453 community hospitals.* Hospitals are assigned a composite score and ranked at the specialty level, based on data from multiple sources. The rankings and their associated data appear in the print magazine and online at http://health.usnews.com/sections/health/best-hospitals/index.html. The National Opinion Research Center (NORC) at the University of Chicago devised the underlying methodology for U.S. News in the early 1990s, then collected the data and compiled the rankings from 1993 to 2004. In 2005, RTI International† in Research Triangle Park, N.C., began producing the rankings. The methodology has been refined as research has indicated areas for improvement and change. Larger-scale adjustments are under constant consideration and will be adopted if they clearly enhance the usefulness, quality, and robustness of the rankings. For 2008, hospitals are ranked in 16 specialties: • Cancer • Neurology and Neurosurgery • Ear, Nose, and Throat • Ophthalmology • Endocrinology • Orthopedics • Gastrointestinal Disorders • Psychiatry • Geriatric Care • Rehabilitation • Gynecology • Respiratory Disorders • Heart and Heart Surgery • Rheumatology • Kidney Disease • Urology The rankings were developed and

Many of these facilities are also on the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s list of Magnet hospitals (shown below in red type), which are recognized for their excellence in nursing service.

  • A Patient's Perspective
    A Patient’s Perspective The purpose of this folio is to portray a patient’s experience of treatment at the Austen Riggs Center. The work done at Riggs is best illustrated and explained with examples. However, examples must be provided in ways that protect patient confidentiality. Our solution to communicate an authentic patient experience was to create a composite of vignettes, stitched together in one voice. This amalgam of patient stories reflects real and individual experiences culled from interviews with many of our clinicians who work with patients struggling to make or find meaning in their lives. This composite might seem too tidy for some and it is not meant to suggest that life is easy for individuals who complete treatment at Riggs. Nor is this composite meant to be a substitute for aggregate data across the experience of many patients, which can be found on the outcomes section of our website. We hope you read this story to learn about the complexity of treatment at Riggs, the power and value of discovering one’s own voice and take the story as illustrative of a typical Riggs experience. Foreword No one sets out to be a patient in apsychiatric hospital, but some of us endupthere. For me, the Austen Riggs Center was the place that taught me how to acknowledge my troubles and access my strengths in a way that made it possible to move forward with my life. This is the story of my journey to Riggs and through the six months I spent there. It would not have been possible for me to write about any of this while I was at Riggs because it was a very turbulent and, at times, difficult process.

Founded in 1919, Riggs today offers adults with complex psychiatric problems a hospital-based continuum of care that includes inpatient, residential, and day-treatment services. We treat the individual, not the diagnosis. Patients come to us with multiple diagnoses, often including personality and mood disorders; but we understand that these labels do not necessarily capture the essence of their struggles or strengths. We offer intensive psychodynamic psychotherapy within a therapeutic community dedicated to the idea of examined living, in which patients and staff discuss the meanings of behaviors, choices, and interactions with one another in open, collaborative ways. Our work is grounded in the perspective that every life has meaning, every person can be understood within a network of relationships, and treatment leads to a more fulfilling life when the sources of suffering are addressed. We treat Our goal is to help our patients expand their capacity for work, play, and the individual, love by helping them acknowledge and come to terms with psychological not the diagnosis.
