Portneuf Medical Center was ranked the best hospital in Eastern Idaho by a national magazine and our joint commission scores gave us a national safety and quality award that was one of the highest in the country. In fact, PMC was the only hospital in Eastern Idaho to receive an award for quality and safety. As a comprehensive regional referral hospital, we are proud to offer world class health care right here at home. Our unwavering commitment and dedication to provide extraordinary health care to our patients and their families is consistently recognized on a national level. At home, we remain on the forefront of innovation and quality care because we recognized that the families we care for are not just our patients, but they are our neighbors, our relatives and our friends.
