10 Missouri Hospitals All Graded Straight A’s for Patient Safety

It's nice to be able to share some good news for a change. There are 10 Missouri hospitals that are apparently getting everything right as they were all just given straight A grades for patient safety.

According to Hospital Safety Grade from Leapfrog, there are only 10 Missouri medical facilities that got perfect scores in 4 different categories that all have to do with patient treatment and protection. They were all ranked based on these factors:

• Errors
• Injuries
• Accidents
• Infections

Only these 10 got straight A's for all of those vital categories.

I have not had any personal experience with any of these fine Missouri hospitals, but have had many family members who were a part of the medical field in the state. I've never known more honorable people than them and have a ton of respect for those who put in the massive effort it takes to complete their education and then spend decades in the practice of saving lives.
