**2026 Patient Safety Excellence Awards Recognize Top Hospitals for Quality Care**

We're proud to share that our clinic has been recognized as a top performer in patient safety by Healthgrades, a leading healthcare ratings organization.

The 2026 Patient Safety Excellence Awards recognize hospitals that provide the highest quality care and excel at preventing serious safety events. This year's recipients include 438 hospitals from 40 states, representing the top 10% of hospitals nationwide for patient safety.

According to Healthgrades' analysis, more than 100,000 patient safety events could have been avoided between 2022 and 2024 if all hospitals had performed at the same level as those that received a 2026 Patient Safety Excellence Award. Patients treated at award-winning hospitals were also significantly less likely to experience serious but preventable complications, including:

  • In-hospital falls that result in fractures (52.4% less likely)
  • Collapsed lungs related to procedures or surgery around the chest (57.5% less likely)
  • Catheter-related bloodstream infections acquired in the hospital (67.8% less likely)
  • Pressure sores or bed sores developed during a hospital stay (71.9% less likely)

"The data behind this year's Patient Safety Excellence Award highlights how measurable improvements in safety can prevent thousands of complications," said Alana Biggers, MPH, medical advisor at Healthgrades.

At our clinic, we prioritize evidence-based safety practices to ensure that patients receive the highest quality care. We're committed to creating a culture where patient safety is paramount and strive to make informed healthcare decisions easier for individuals and families.

How Our Clinic Measures Up

We're proud to have been recognized by Healthgrades as a top performer in patient safety. To determine the recipients, Healthgrades analyzed hospital performance using inpatient MedPAR data and evaluated facilities across 13 patient safety indicators (PSIs). These indicators track serious complications that can occur during hospital care, such as respiratory failure after surgery, surgical infections, and excessive bleeding following procedures.

We're committed to transparency and accountability in our patient safety efforts. If you have any questions or concerns about our clinic's patient safety practices, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.
