John Muir Health Designated as a Neuroscience Center of Excellence

2006 Centers of Excellence
October 2006 -- John Muir Health is among the nation's top neuroscience programs, and designated as a Neuroscience Center of Excellence (COE), according to the 2006 Neuroscience Center of Excellence Survey, co-sponsored by NeuroSource, Inc., Chicago, IL and HealthTech, San Francisco, CA.

The 2006 survey, the only one of its kind in the neurosciences, analyzed 150 neuroscience programs, across 41 states. A hospital's overall performance is determined by measuring program progress in four key areas: Clinical and Research Programs, Staff, Facilities & Technology, and Business.

2006 marks the third annual year for the Neuroscience COE Survey. The annual assessment evaluated 150 hospital-based programs, and only 42% of those programs received sufficient scores to be recognized as a 2006 Neuroscience Center of Excellence.

Center of Excellence designees represent many of the leading, innovative programs across the country.
