Milton, MA – Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital–Milton (BID Milton) received an “A” Hospital Safety Grade from The Leapfrog Group. This national distinction celebrates BID Milton’s achievements in protecting hospital patients from preventable harm and errors.
“Providing quality care while ensuring the safest experience possible for our patients is what we strive to achieve at BID Milton,” Rich Fernandez, president of Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital–Milton. “As we once again receive this ‘A’ recognition, we also recognize the effort and dedication that our caregivers, nurses and clinicians put into their work every single day. Thank you to the Leapfrog Group for this award.”
The Leapfrog Group is an independent national watchdog organization with a 10-year history of assigning letter grades to general hospitals throughout the United States, based on a hospital’s ability to prevent medical errors and harm to patients. The grading system is peer-reviewed, fully transparent, and free to the public. Hospital Safety Grade results are based on more than 30 national performance measures and are updated each fall and spring.
“I applaud the hospital leadership and workforce for their strong commitment to safety and transparency,” said Leah Binder, president and CEO of The Leapfrog Group. “An ‘A’ Safety Grade is a sign that hospitals are continuously evaluating their performance, so that they can best protect patients. Your hospital team should be extremely proud of their dedication and achievement.”
