Cr Of », £ The Western Pennsylvania Hospital Temple University School of Medicine Clinical Campus Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Class of 2007 It is with great pleasure that I extend my congratulations to the 61 1 class of clinical campus students who have completed their entire third and fourth years of clinical training at The Western Pennsylvania Hospital We also continue to enjoy having the main campus students join us for their required and elective rotations. The campus continues to be one of the city's leading teaching facilities, which has attracted medical students from across the country. West Penn Hospital has earned an international reputation for excellence and innovation m the care of patients, education and research. West Penn joined the ranks of only a handful of other healthcare facilities in the world by being awarded Magnet recognition status from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) in December 2006. With fewer than 3 percent of the more than 5,000 healthcare facilities recognized by the ANCC for excellence in nursing and quality patient care. West Penn Hospital is now the first hospital in Pittsburgh and western Pennsylvania to receive the coveted designation - comparable to winning a gold medal in the Olympics. In 2004. the Hospital became the only major teaching hospital in Pennsylvania to be recognized by the Solucicnt Institute for the third consecutive year as among the country’s 100 Top Hospitals for overall performance. Solucient also named West Penn the only hospital in the region among the nations best hospitals for heart care in 2003, and previously recognized West Penn among the 100 Top Hospitals for intensive care. I look forward to our continued affiliation with the Temple University School of Medicine and the growth of the clinical campus to be a major resource for the School of Medicine in educating students.
