The Leapfrog Group awards the national honor for fall 2024

Grosse Pointe, Mich., Nov. 15, 2024 – Corewell Health™ Beaumont Grosse Pointe Hospital earned an “A” Hospital Safety Grade for fall 2024 from The Leapfrog Group, a national nonprofit watchdog that sets standards for excellence in patient care.

The distinction recognizes the achievements of the hospital in protecting patients from preventable harm and error.

The Leapfrog Group assigns an “A,” “B,” “C,” “D” or “F” grade to general hospitals across the country twice annually. The Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade uses up to 30 national performance measures from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the Leapfrog Hospital Survey and information from other supplemental data sources. Taken together, the performance measures produce a single letter grade representing a hospital’s overall performance in keeping patients safe from preventable harm and medical errors.

“We are very proud that five Corewell Health hospitals received an ‘A’ Safety Grade for fall 2024 and we continue to collaborate with Leapfrog on our safety journey,” said James Moses, M.D., chief quality, safety and experience officer for Corewell Health.  “That said, there are more opportunities to ensure all our hospitals get to ‘A’ when it comes to safety. We are looking forward to the work ahead that will get us there.”

Corewell Health Big Rapids Hospital, Corewell Health Greenville Hospital, Corewell Health Ludington Hospital and Corewell Health Zeeland Hospital also earned an ‘A’ Hospital Safety Grade from The Leapfrog Group for fall 2024.
