When teens use drugs to cope with life’s challenges, they’re at risk of taking fake pills. Fake pills can often contain fentanyl, a synthetic opioid that’s up to 50 times stronger than he**in and 100 times stronger than morphine. It only takes a tiny amount to cause a fatal overdose.

Way to go Bartlett Regional Hospital!
Bartlett has earned a 5 star rating for overall hospital quality from the Centers of Medicare and Medicaid.

"The more stars, the better a hospital performed on the available quality measures of mortality, safety of care, readmission, patient experience, and timely and effective care. CMS rated 2,891 hospitals and only 10.1% of hospitals reviewed were awarded a five-star rating."

Bartlett Regional Hospital earned a five-star rating from The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Overall Hospital Quality Star Ratings List for 2025. 291 U.S. hospitals received a five-star rating, and Bartlett is the sole five-star recipient in Alaska.
