Chatuge Regional Hospital: 3.7 TCR = 49% of Health Care BLS 7.5 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Chatuge Regional Hospital safety composite

Chatuge Regional Hospital scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 71% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 38%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).

Narrower to Georgia alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #56 safest of 170 Health Care employers in Georgia.

Chatuge Regional Hospital (137 employees, TCR 3.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 492 employees and a TCR of 5.2

Chatuge Regional Hospital has fewer employees than the Health Care median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 5.2.
