Henry Community Health (HCH) has been recognized by Healthgrades, the leading resource for comprehensive information about physicians and hospitals, for excellence in hip fracture treatment for 2026. This prestigious recognition places HCH among the top hospitals in the nation for delivering outstanding care to patients with hip fractures.
The Healthgrades recognition is based on an evaluation of patient outcomes, including survival rates and complication rates, using data from Medicare claims for the 2022-2024 time period. Hospitals that achieve this distinction demonstrate consistently superior clinical outcomes in hip fracture treatment compared to their peers nationwide.
“We are honored to receive this recognition from Healthgrades, which reflects the dedication and expertise of our entire orthopedic team,” said Brian Ring, president and CEO of Henry Community Health. “Hip fractures require immediate, specialized care, and this distinction validates our commitment to providing exceptional treatment and compassionate support to our patients when they need it most.”
“Hip fractures are among the most serious injuries affecting older adults, often requiring surgical intervention and comprehensive rehabilitation,” said Kyle Siewert, MD, chief orthopedic surgeon at HCH’s Henry County Center for Orthopedic Surgery and Sports Medicine. “Our multidisciplinary approach includes board-certified orthopedic surgeons, an outstanding group of anesthesia providers and medical staff, specialized nursing staff, physical therapists, and care coordinators who work together to optimize patient recovery and outcomes.”
Henry Community Health’s focus extends beyond the surgical procedure to encompass the entire continuum of care. From rapid diagnosis and treatment to post-operative rehabilitation and discharge planning, every step is designed to help patients regain mobility and return to their daily lives.
The Healthgrades recognition underscores Henry Community Health’s ongoing investment in orthopedic services, advanced surgical technology, and evidence-based protocols that prioritize patient safety and positive outcomes.
