For the seventh time in a row, �ٺ���Ƶ Health has earned top safety ratings for its inpatient locations across the system, with each receiving “A” ratings in the fall 2023 Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade release, a level of patient safety achieved by only 30 percent of hospitals nationwide.

�ٺ���Ƶ inpatient locations that received top marks are Tisch Hospital and Kimmel Pavilion in Manhattan, �ٺ���Ƶ Hospital—Brooklyn, and �ٺ���Ƶ Hospital—Long Island.

“These consistent ‘A’ ratings from Leapfrog are another independent validation of the safe, quality care we offer to patients across our system,” said Robert I. Grossman, MD, CEO of �ٺ���Ƶ and dean of NYU Grossman School of Medicine. “Exceptional safety outcomes are the baseline at �ٺ���Ƶ, so patients can be confident they will receive unparalleled care from dedicated health professionals who are always working to raise the bar.”

The Leapfrog Group, an independent national watchdog organization, assigns a letter grade, from “A” to “F,” to general hospitals across the country based on more than 30 performance measures reflecting errors, accidents, injuries, and infections, as well as the systems that hospitals have in place to prevent harm. Leapfrog releases updated grades twice annually in the fall and spring.

Earlier this year, Vizient Inc. named �ٺ���Ƶ the No. 1 hospital in the nation for quality and patient safety. Additionally, U.S. News & World Report included �ٺ���Ƶ on its “Best Hospitals Honor Roll,” ranking 10 of its clinical specialties among the top 10 in the nation, and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) awarded �ٺ���Ƶ five stars for safety, quality, and patient experience.
