BATAVIA, N.Y. <\/strong>\u2014 Rochester Regional Health<\/u><\/a> is proud to announce that United Memorial Medical Center (UMMC)<\/u><\/a> has been recognized by Becker’s Hospital Review<\/u><\/a> as one of a select number hospitals in the nation to achieve a zero central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI)<\/a> rate in intensive care units and select hospital wards. This is according to the latest Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)<\/a> Healthcare-Associated Infections dataset. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Central lines are specialized intravenous catheters used to deliver medications, fluids and other treatments to patients with serious medical conditions. While these devices are often lifesaving, they can also increase the risk of bloodstream infections if not managed with meticulous care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The data, which reflects performance from July 2024 through June 2025, highlights hospitals that excel in preventing serious healthcare-associated infections. Among thousands of hospitals across the country, United Memorial Medical Center is one of only 405 nationwide\u2014including just 25 in New York State\u2014to achieve a zero central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) rate in intensive care units and select hospital wards, demonstrating an exceptional commitment to patient safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This recognition reflects our team’s unwavering commitment to delivering care like family every day,” said Jill Graziano, President and COO of United Memorial Medical Center<\/strong>. “Preventing infections requires every member of our team working together with a relentless focus on quality, safety, and evidence-based care. I’m incredibly proud of their dedication to protecting our patients and advancing our vision to become the national model of health and healing.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This recognition underscores United Memorial Medical Center’s ongoing commitment to providing the safest possible care for every patient. By preventing avoidable infections, the hospital is helping patients heal more quickly, reducing complications, and improving outcomes for the communities it serves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
