Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic (WPIC) has been recognized by the American Nurses Association (ANA) for consistently achieving outstanding patient outcomes through high-quality nursing care.

As one of six nationally recognized hospitals, WPIC participates in ANA’s National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators (NDNQI), which bills itself as the nation’s most comprehensive catalog of nursing-care outcomes tied directly to the high quality of care. More than 1,500 hospitals participate in ANA’s database.

The award winners demonstrated superior patient outcomes and high nurse job satisfaction on the 18 performance indicators tracked by NDNQI.
