The Richland Hospital and Clinics (TRHC) earned a prestigious five-star cleanliness rating from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), as recognized by Becker’s Hospital Review. This elite distinction, based on patient survey data from July 2024 to June 2025, reflects the hospital’s high standards for patient safety and comfort.  

Out of thousands of hospitals across the country, only 374 achieved a five-star cleanliness rating, placing TRHC among an elite group of health care organizations. Wisconsin led the nation with 30 hospitals receiving this top distinction, highlighting the state’s commitment to high standards in patient care and facility cleanliness.

“This recognition reflects the dedication and attention to detail our Environmental Services team brings to their work every day,” said Heidi Darling, vice president of professional services. “It’s essential to patient safety, comfort, and confidence in making TRHC their health care home. This achievement would not be possible without their outstanding efforts.”
