Northern Regional Hospital Included in Newsweek’s America’s Best-In-State Hospitals 2025 List

Mount Airy, NC, November 2025 – Northern Regional Hospital has been included in Newsweek’s list of America’s Best-In-State Hospitals 2025. This prestigious award is presented in collaboration with Statista, the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The awards list was announced on October 23rd, 2024, and can currently be viewed on Newsweek’s website.

Proximity and access are of the utmost importance when choosing between top hospitals. The America’s Best-In-State Hospitals 2025 ranking was created to identify the top hospitals at the state level. Hospitals from all US states were eligible for the ranking and included in the nationwide survey. Four data sources were used for the evaluation: quality metrics data, a nationwide online survey, patient experience, and a voluntary PROMS implementation survey. As a result, the 700 hospitals that scored the highest across these criteria have been included on the list.

Northern is honored to be recognized on Newsweek’s list of America’s Best-In-State Hospitals 2025. It reinforces that Northern excels in quality of care, has high patient satisfaction, and is one of the leading hospitals in the nation.

“This recognition is a testament to the dedication, hard work, and compassionate care provided by our entire team,” said Chris A. Lumsden, President and CEO of Northern Regional Hospital. “At Northern, we are deeply committed to our patients and our community, and this award reinforces the excellence in care we strive to deliver every day. I am incredibly proud of our staff and their unwavering commitment to making a positive impact on the health and well-being of those we serve.”
