Patient Experience

What is Patient Experience?

Your patient experience is not just about your medical care.  Everything that happens while you’re at the hospital affects your experience, such as:

• Having your doctor or nurse clearly explain your care to you and your family
• Receiving help when you need it
• Getting answers to your questions about medications
• Having a clean room
• Sleeping well at night because it’s quiet
• Understanding what you need to do at home to recover

Every staff member at Odessa Regional Medical Center is committed to delivering a great experience to every patient. Here are our most recent patient experience scores, compared to other nearby hospitals and the Texas average score:

The aim is to help improve hospitals’ quality of care through easy-to-understand data on hospital performance and quality information from patient perspectives.}
