l ICU.

The Consumer Reports web site (www.ConsumerReportsHealth.org) currently rates more than 3,600 hospitals in the U. S. based on several criteria including patient satisfaction, intensity of care, and steps to prevent infection.  This last measure, which is different from the CLABSI infection rates, assesses how well a hospital follows correct procedures to avoid surgical infections.      

For a limited time, www.ConsumerReportsHealth.org  is offering a 30-day free trial at www.ConsumerReportsHealth.org/febtrialhttp://www.consumerreportshealth.org/augtrial . The cost for a year's subscription is $19.
