Pikimal Recognizes Hospitals of Excellence

Website Ranks Facilities Nationwide on a Variety of Characteristics to Exhibit the Best

Pittsburgh, PA (I-Newswire) August 2, 2011 - Hospitals are one of the most important institutions in our country. When lives are at stake, they become the places where miracles happen every day. Pikimal realizes that for the majority of consumers the hospital they visit depends mainly on geographic location. Yet many of these organizations exceed in specialties or patient care and deserve to be recognized.

With that in mind, Pikimal created a hospital Piki that celebrates the excellence of hospitals around the country. Distinctions vary and include everything from “best hospitals for surviving heart failure” to “best hospitals for peace and quiet.” Not only does the Piki provide acknowledgment for facilities that strive for precision and dependability, but can also be used by consumers to choose a facility if their needs are based on specialty rather than location.

Pikimal was created to help users make the difficult choices in their lives. People want to make informed decisions, but the effort of educating oneself on all topics is overwhelming. That’s where Pikis come in. Thanks to Pikimal, you don’t need to be a breeder to know the right dog for your family or a ski expert to know the perfect resort for your weekend getaway. Finding the best products for your lifestyle or the solution to difficult online choices has become painless thanks to the power of Pikimal.
