                          HAMOT MEDICAL CENTER

  (Mrs. DAHLKEMPER asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. DAHLKEMPER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to applaud the exemplary 
health care institution in my district, Hamot Medical Center in Erie, 
Pennsylvania.
  For more than 125 years, western Pennsylvanians have taken advantage 
of the excellent quality of care at Hamot Medical Center. This week, 
Hamot Medical Center is being recognized yet again for their high 
standards of quality and excellent patient care. U.S. News & World 
Report announced that Hamot Medical Center has been ranked among the 
top medical facilities in the Nation in the specialty of pulmonary 
medicine, which treats diseases of the lungs and respiratory tract. 
U.S. News & World Report's Best Hospitals 2010-11 includes rankings of 
152 medical centers nationwide on tough standards of care and the 
number of patients served, among other factors.
  I want to congratulate Hamot Medical Center for its commitment to its 
patients and to our community. Hamot is truly an asset to my district.
