Palomar Health earned As for its two facilities while Scripps and Sharp facilities fell to Bs
Though most held steady, a total of five hospitals in San Diego gained or lost a grade in the latest safety report from the Leapfrog Group, a nonprofit that grades medical provider performance nationwide each spring and fall. In the fall tabulation, both hospitals operated by Palomar Health had reason to celebrate. Palomar Medical Center Escondido and its sister facility in Poway both saw their Leapfrog safety grades increase from B's to A's.
Likewise, 7 percent nationwide were said to earn D's and less than 1 percent F's, but no facility in the region fell so far. Leapfrog graded nearly 3,000 hospitals and medical centers operating in the United States, examining results for a range of potential problems, including medical errors, accidents and infections.
