Legacy Silverton Medical Center, known as Silverton Hospital before its affiliation with Legacy Health System in 2016, [1] [2] is a nonprofit regional hospital located in Silverton, Oregon, United States. Founded in 1917, the 48-bed facility moved to its current location in 1938. The hospital includes a Level IV trauma center, a 24-hour emergency department, a family birth center, and diagnostic imaging. [3]
Legacy Silverton Medical Center offers a comprehensive mix of services, many of which are not typically available in a small rural hospital, including:
Since 2008, Legacy Silverton has earned recognition each year with the Press Ganey Summit Award, [4] [5] [6] [7] which is given to hospitals ranked in the top 5 percent for clinical performance and patient satisfaction. [8]
The hospital reported in January 2015 that ten patients had been burned during surgeries due to unfiltered halogen lights in the operating room. [9]
