Secular hospitals are hospitals run by secular, non-religious governments or organizations.
America's oldest public hospital in existence is New York's Bellevue Hospital which was established in 1736. The hospital, initially a six-bed hospital, was a municipal hospital created by a secular, non-religious government. Secular hospitals commonly perform abortions.
Religious hospitals vs. secular hospitals: Quality of care
According to the Acton Institute:
| “ | Thomson Reuters has issued a new report that shows church-run hospitals provide better quality care more efficiently than other secular hospitals.
Jean Chenoweth, senior vice president for performance improvement and 100 Top Hospitals programs at Thomson Reuters, says, “Our data suggest that the leadership of health systems owned by churches may be the most active in aligning quality goals and monitoring achievement of mission across the system.”[1] |
