We also continue to enjoy having the main campus students join us for their required and elective rotations. The campus at West Penn Hospital continues to be one of Pittsburgh's leading teaching facilities and has attracted medical students from across the country. West Penn Hospital has earned an international reputation for excellence and innovation in the care of patients, education, and research. In 2006. The Western Pennsylvania Hospital was awarded Magnet Recognition™ status from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), the first hospital in Pittsburgh and western Pennsylvania to achieve this prestigious designation for excellence in nursing services. The ANCC is the nation's largest and foremost nursing credentialing organization and the 4-ycar Magnet designation is the highest level of recognition that the ANCC can extend to healthcare organizations. West Penn Hospital has also been regionally and nationally recognized for excellence in bariatric surgery, cell transplantation, bum care, cardiovascular care, obstetrics and neonatal care, and reproductive medicine. The hospital has been named on Thomson Reuters’ Top 100 Hospitals list four times since 2001.
