Patient Satisfaction Scores/Core Measures

Phelps Memorial Health Center continually looks to our patients, our community and our staff to identify areas where we may improve our processes. We continually review our patient surveys and public comments to better PMHC. Listening to our patients and neighbors will allow us to improve our delivery of service.
