More than a dozen central Indiana hospitals received low patient safety ratings for 2022, according to a report released from a consumer watchdog.
Leapfrog Group, based in Washington D.C., rates nearly 3,000 hospitals across the country based on how well they protect patients. The group combines public data from the centers for Medicare and Medicaid services and surveys.The report highlights hospitals who lack trained intensive care unit doctors and those that have logged preventable medical errors, patient injuries and infections.
Quality and Patient Safety Report, Vice President of the Indiana Hospital Association, Karin Kennedy, explains. WRTV reached out to Riverview Health who said, “While it appreciates the organization's dedication to improving the quality of healthcare, it doesn't believe this survey truly reflects the overall quality of care it provides."Hospitals with a ‘C’ rating:Eskenazi health is listed below average for staph and colon infections in patients, death from treatable serious complications, accidental cuts and tears during surgery, patients falling causing broken hips and more.
"Any kind of medical error, or a hospital acquired condition is one too many, Kenney said. “They take that very, very seriously.” Most hospitals declined an interview and referred us to the Indiana Patient Safety Coalition. WRTV has reached out to them for comment.
