An 'A' Hospital Safety Grade from The Leapfrog Group is earned by HCA Florida Trinity Hospital

HCA Florida Trinity Hospital earned an “A” Hospital Safety Grade from The Leapfrog Group, an independent national nonprofit watchdog focused on patient safety. Leapfrog assigns an “A,” “B,” “C,” “D” or “F” grade to general hospitals across the country using evidence-based measures of patient safety focused exclusively on errors, accidents, injuries and infections.

“We are proud to have earned an “A” Hospital Safety Grade once again,” said Mike Irvin, CEO of HCA Florida Trinity Hospital. “Demonstrating clinical excellence and a safe experience for our patients is a top priority for our caregivers.”

“Earning an ‘A’ Grade means HCA Florida Trinity Hospital made a true commitment to put patient safety first,” said Leah Binder, president and CEO of The Leapfrog Group. “We congratulate the leadership, Board, clinicians, staff and volunteers that all had a role to play in this achievement.”

The Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade stands as the only hospital ratings program focused solely on preventable medical errors, infections and injuries that kill more than 500 patients a day in the United States. This program is peer-reviewed, fully transparent and free to the public. Grades are updated twice annually, in the fall and spring.
