Welcome to Methodist
At Methodist, outstanding healthcare is centered on you.
It starts with the best doctors - more than 500 board-certified physicians experienced in family care, emergency medicine and 36 specialties. They're backed by a dedicated team of healthcare professionals, including nurses, technologists, therapists, social workers, clinicians, and pastoral caregivers, who combine high-tech medicine with genuine warmth and caring.
Then we add the latest advances in healthcare to bring new treatments and technology to the people of Central Illinois. For example, our commitment to world-class heart care includes the opening of the Methodist Heart, Lung and Vascular Institute and the development of cardiology fellowship programs at the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Peoria.
Our emphasis on quality has resulted in outstanding, measurable results. In 2005, Methodist earned the Joint Commission's Gold Seal of Approval, confirming that Methodist has achieved accreditation, meeting or exceeding JCAHO standards including compliance with the National Patient Safety Goals. Methodist ranks in the top 10% for patient satisfaction for inpatient and emergency services, and the top 2% for outpatient services nationwide, based on PressGaney databases (2004). And we are one of approximately 300 hospitals in the U.S. participating in a pilot program conducted by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to improve the quality and efficiency of patient care. We proudly display objective measures of our quality on this website.
Our goal is to be one of the Top 5% of hospitals in America in everything we do. If there is any way we can enhance your experience at Methodist, please call our Patient Advocate at (309) 671-8209.
