                        Thursday, July 14, 2016

  Mr. RODNEY DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to 
congratulate Memorial Medical Center in Springfield, Illinois for 
earning the American Hospital Association's 2016 McKesson Quest for 
Quality Prize.
  The Quest for Quality Prize is the top national honor for healthcare 
quality and safety. Each year, the American Hospital Association 
recognizes one hospital in the nation that has excelled in its 
commitment to reliable, safe, patient-centered care.
  Since 1970, Memorial Medical Center has been dedicated to exceptional 
patient care, education, and research. As a teaching hospital, Memorial 
Medical Center has established itself as a leader in training 
tomorrow's healthcare professionals, making it a deserving recipient of 
this year's award.
  Memorial Medical Center is the first hospital in Illinois to receive 
the Quest for Quality Prize, and I know it will continue to serve as 
one of our state's most prominent hospitals. I am proud of all those 
that have helped make Memorial Medical Center the standard for 
exceptional healthcare in Illinois. Congratulations on this well-
deserved distinction.
