THE 16 WA HOSPITALS THAT RECEIVED THE PERFECT ‘A’ SAFETY GRADE

The 2024 hospital grades were recently released. Last year, 13 Washington hospitals received the highly coveted A rating.

The Leapfrog Group website gives out hospital safety grades for medical centers all over America. 

 The "experts" came from various places, such as Harvard, John Hopkins University School of Nursing, Stanford, UC Davis, Vanderbilt, and the CDC.

Each hospital is graded on how they deal with the following: 

  • Infections
  • Problems with surgery,
  • Safety problems like falls, collapsed lungs, and blood clots, 
  • What measures do they have in place to prevent errors, 
  • Training of the doctors, nurses, and other hospital staff.
  • How well they communicate with each other.

Why don’t all hospitals Have a grade?

‘Don't see your town's hospital? More information is needed to issue a safety grade... Sometimes, hospitals have decided not to report their data to Leapfrog voluntarily.’ -Leapfrog

 

 

Leapfrog graded 49 Washington hospitals.
