🌟We’re incredibly proud to share some exciting news with our community: Gifford has earned both a 5-star Overall Hospital Quality Rating and a 5-star Patient Survey Rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the highest rating possible in both categories.

For us, this recognition is about more than stars. It reflects the compassion, dedication, and teamwork our staff brings to every patient interaction, every day. It also reflects the trust our patients and communities place in us across central Vermont.

We believe exceptional care should be close to home, and these ratings reinforce that patients can receive high-quality, patient-centered care right here in the communities we serve.

Thank you to our incredible team, our patients, and our community for being part of this achievement! We’re honored to care for you.

Fast care matters. So does kindness.

Our Emergency Department provides patients with expert emergency care and some of the lowest wait times in the nation, but what truly sets our team apart is the compassion behind every interaction.

Here, you’re not just a number. You’re our neighbor. If you or a loved one need emergency care, you can count on Gifford for skilled treatment delivered with warmth, kindness, and heart.

We’re grateful to this patient for sharing their experience with our caring ED team.
