Measures the rate at which patients die within 30 days of hospital admission for specific conditions. A lower mortality rate indicates better outcomes.

Safety of Care
Same as National Average
Tracks hospital-acquired infections, surgical complications, and other patient safety indicators. Lower rates indicate better safety practices.
Measures how often patients return to the hospital within 30 days of discharge. Lower readmission rates suggest effective treatment and discharge planning.
Based on the HCAHPS survey — patient satisfaction with communication, cleanliness, pain management, and discharge information.

CMS computes the Patient Experience domain from the federal HCAHPS survey.
Each bar below is one survey question; the percentage is the share of
Southwest's recent patients who gave the most positive
response. HCAHPS percentages aren't directly comparable across all measures —

Psychiatric Unit Quality (IPFQR)
Southwest Arkansas Regional Medical Center Llc operates a Medicare-certified inpatient psychiatric unit that reports under the federal IPFQR program. The measures below are specific to that unit — not the hospital as a whole. They cover restraint and seclusion use, screening for medication side effects, substance-use and tobacco treatment, transitions of care, follow-up after discharge, and readmissions.
Metabolic Screening (SMD) 100.0 %
National median: 92.0 % Near national median
SMD — % of patients on antipsychotics screened for metabolic side effects (BMI, blood glucose, cholesterol). Antipsychotics raise metabolic-syndrome risk; screening catches it early.
Transition Record Completed 100.0 %
National median: 77.0 % Better than national median
TR-1 — % of discharges with a completed transition record including medications, follow-up plan, and crisis instructions.
30-Day Readmission Rate 15.9 %
National median: 19.1 % Better than national median
READM-30-IPF — risk-standardized 30-day readmission rate. No Different Than the National Rate
Quality and ratings data are sourced from the U.S. Centers for

Star ratings are CMS's own calculation; CareRanks does not modify
or re-weight them. Facility-level details (address, beds,
ownership, teaching status) come from CMS provider files and the
CMS Provider of Services file.
