CMC the UC’s only ‘Best
Maternity Hospital’ in
Newsweek rankings
Cumberland Medical Center
is named among “Best Maternity
Hospitals 2020” by Newsweek.
The distinction was awarded to
231 facilities in 36 states, and
Cumberland Medical Center
is one of only four hospitals in
Tennessee to be included.
Newsweek partnered with The
Leapfrog
Group, a
national
nonprofit
organization
that reports
on the
safety and
quality performance
of U.S.
health care
facilities, to
determine
the elite
hospitals
for maternity
care.
The list is
based on
standards of excellence
in maternity care, including
achieving low rates of C-section,
episiotomy and early elective
deliveries, and following specific
protocols to protect mothers and
babies. Cumberland Medical
Center was recognized by The
Leapfrog group in December,
receiving the state’s only Top
Rural Hospital designation for its
standards of quality and patient
safety.
“We strive to put patients first
and apply excellence in all that
we do,” says Cumberland Medical
Center Chief Administrative
Officer David Bunch. “This
award confirms that our staff
and physicians are delivering
high-quality care for mothers and
their newborns each and every
day at CMC. It is an absolute
honor to see them nationally recognized
by Newsweek as a leader
in maternity care.”
The Tennessee Department of
Health has also recently awarded
CMC’s Labor and Delivery
team for consistently meeting the
state’s Newborn Screening standards
to help identify conditions
that can affect a child’s long-term
health or
survival.
Screenings
completed
shortly after
birth can
help identify
genetic, endocrine,
and
metabolic
disorders,
as well as
hearing loss
and congenital
heart
defects.
The hospital
also provides
free
educational
childbirth classes to
help better prepare mothers and
families prior to their delivery. In
these sessions they learn about
nutrition, signs of labor, breathing
techniques, and infant care, as
well as breast and bottle feeding.
Nearly 700 babies are born
annually in the hospital’s private
12-bed maternity suite. OB-
GYNs on the medical staff who
deliver newborns at CMC include
Brad Leath, MD; William Smith,
MD, and Andy Szaflarski, MD.

Hospitals 2020 list can be viewed
